I knew, fairies dwelt there..
As I crossed that lane with borders green,
Gentle whispers in the moving breeze..
Causing the rustle of leaves on trees,
There's music heard in that silent world..
As the dew drops drip and spill
~ Ripples on lakes
Adding to the melody still..
I knew, angels heard them too
As I hear their distant laughter in echoes mild
The voice of the wind, beguiled..
Like the lone dew on a newborn leaf
A single drop from eyelids peep,
They drip, dribble, sofly flow
To rest on cheeks, like pearls they glow;
And the drizzle comes down slow..
The first drop of rain stirring me
~ Again, the ripples on lakes ~
In solitude, I feel my tears rush down
And I know that angels are watching too..
For I sense a voice in the moving breeze
As if to say, 'Just stay at ease..'

I liked it
Liked the mood, the alliteration, the sentiment although I believe in neither fairies nor angels. -

Very imaginative. You have a playful placement of effective simple words, immitating an idyllic nature scene. I especially like the return of the catchy title, late in both stanzas.

This is gorgeous! I love the flawless unforced rhyme and beautiful imagery...
This has a magical quality and flows so sweetly...soft and joyous
