When I believed in fairies
They looked just like she does
One retrieved my first lost tooth
And left me money, just because
But now I believe in butterflies and angels
Which when joined together might be a fairy
And they lite and bring light to many
And wishes and dreams they carry
To way beyond the clouds, and label them as prayers
They wrap them up in gold and then they leave them there.

"But now I believe in butterflies and angels

I adore those lines, they are as innocent as some faeries. I love the thought here, what you left me thinking after I got done reading. It created a grand smile on my face.
Thank you for this delightful entry. I wish you the best in the Comp.
Much Love & Light ♥

What a lovely poem about this fairy in the picture prompt. Looks very
much like a sonnet you have penned here. Quite a combination of angel, butterflies and fairies.

I think fairies are for girls. Hmmm... Must be that sugar and spice thing. Me, I liked trolls and gremlins. Until of course, they made a movie of gremlins and toys of trolls. Too cute for my taste. LOL
Well done sister. Love the picture you painted. (I'm gonna use that for the lil one
)
