Oh Hi! Hello there, let me introduce myself!

Please, don’t confuse me with the one on a shelf

I’d much rather be, where lies the green grass

I fancy my time, sitting here, on my… butt

The light, it draws sweetness, closer to me

I’m so very happy, watching a lantern fairy

I love how she dances, around, in the night

Sparkling brightly, underneath the starlight

So if you have a moment, or two, to spare

Come sit for a while, I’m happy to share

This place I call home, though fancy, it’s not

But, I’m sure you’ll enjoy it, ’cause I sure do, a lot!

Oh dear, did I forget, to tell you my name?

Why it’s Jed, this is true, I must proclaim.

Sunlight sparkles through the trees

Fairy dust flies, with mysteries

Released to the wind by her hand

Gisela lets them go, unplanned

Wanting to keep them for herself

She knew better, this little elf

Saying goodbye, she blew a kiss

With her one last final wish

May they return to her, some day

And bring the light, again, her way

Hey down there, can you see me?

I’m waving, from way up here

Tethered, to this mechanical arm

In space, the “Final Frontier”

Surely, you cannot miss me

I’m floating around in midair

My comrades said I wouldn’t do it

So, I’m really out here, on a dare

Now comes the part that’s the hardest

Seems the shuttle was on its last trip

Can someone please come and get me?

They left me hanging in space, with no ship!

Silly Lily – #NovemberWriting #poetry

Little Lady Lily, such a silly forest sprite

Got stuck in a tree, and stayed there all night

Til a bird landed on her, but it couldn’t speak elf

Lady Lily didn’t care, she’d have to teach it herself

Soon, many feathered friends, learning the words

Did pass them along, to all the other birds

The little forest creatures, kept chattering away

Seems all this time, they’d had an awful lot to say

Lady Lily didn’t care, decided to build a new home

Up in the tree, a little nest, the only one, with a dome

Dotted Dimensions – #poetry #SeptemberWriting

In the tall green grass of the meadow

In a dimension much like our own

Lives an elf with his misses and family

In a small, dotted mushroom home

Bright red roofs are clustered

A shelter for the little folk inside

Free to be what they want to be

No need to run away and hide

So if you’re walking about in the country

And you spot a mushroom or two

Remember to leave well enough alone

Or elfin magic will come after you!
