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!

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

She disguised herself well, to the other race

Once a human child, now elegance and grace

The fairies had found her, alone, oh so tragic

Quick as could be, they performed their magic

Gathered around her, they danced with glee

Watched as she welcomed them, happily

No longer alone, this child and her plight

Her life had been changed, by many a sprite

Now they flutter about her, protected is she

A beautiful swan, tis what I wish to be

A sprite among the forest bloom

Standing in her floral room

Waits with wonder, smiling bright

As fairies gather round in flight

Whispering secrets, as they dance

Round her head, they catch her glance

Yet, nary a single word is heard

When fantasies again are stirred

Friday Fantasy ~ The Forest Sage – #poetry

Beauty lies nestled, inside a book

Open the pages, and let’s have a look

Let her spill out, onto the ground

Watch as the fauna gather around

Do they know, who lies there sleeping?

Among the trees, tis her safe keeping

For she is the one, the only sprite

Who guards the gardens, day and night

So tired and weary, she rests her head

The ground below her, makes her bed

Trees making sure she is shaded from sight

Though we can imagination, in sheer delight

Fascination awaits us, quick! Turn the page

Into the magical realm, of this sweet forest sage
