Comment from Meia (MESAYERS)
'She dreams she's a changling; if old tales be true
of scarlet haired fairy-queens, skin white as pearls.
While Mum's hair is black as the ash on the flue,
Vevina Vallelly has fiery red curls.'
I ADORED this piece both bouncing with joy and happiness and also bringing in the subject of a changeling. I write about the subject in my poem 'The changeling' and being half Irish I absolutely delighted in this raucous riot xx well done on this magical write love Meia xx

Thanks so much Meia for your enthusiastic support for my Irish alphabet kid. I have always been fascinated by all things Irish (not to mention any country's myths, folklore and fairies). I am glad you were delighted. - Wendy
Comment from Mustang Patty
And so we have our 'V' story. I enjoyed reading the tale of the changeling child who doesn't resemble her mother, but favors the bonnie lasses of Ireland's shores.
Thank you for sharing this wondrous tale told in a poem,

Yes, now if I could just get Umay Ulessey to stop pouting over in the corner I will have completed the set. I am glad you enjoyed this one and her changeling suspicions. - Wendy
