Fairies
As I lay down on the hills one night
Amongst the purple heather
Starring at the stars above
Shimmering as they glitter
Polka dots of diamonds
Mid the blackness of the sky
Tranquil moon on pedestal
Like porcelain in the sky
Woken from my dream like state
Noise surrounded me
Strangely yet familiar sound
Swirling about me
A lullaby of long ago
Sung over the years
Angelic voices
Languish in my ears
All at once I saw a glow
Illuminating from below
An emerald promenade appears
Never seen this through my years
Imagination running wild
Do I run, do I hide
Do I run to see
The voices that were calling me
Did my head believe
What my eyes had seen
Fairies masquerading
Right in front of me
Pointed ears and silly beards
Wings with silver lining
Singing songs of long ago
Faces all a glow
In awesome wonder as I watched
Fairies on display
Mesmerised, hypnotised, enchanting
Fairies they were dancing
All to soon the sun was rising
Peeking head above horizon
Darkness fades to shades of grey
Turning night time into day
Is it yes, or is it no
Were they real?
Please tell me so
Maybe I will never know
With each glow I see at night
Is it fairy party night?
