Few Elves are blessed with hollow bones and wings
and fewer still have seen what I have seen.
It all began before the time of Kings,
the day I flew above the Forest green.
I fell to Earth and landed in its springs
a paradise befitting of this queen.
The liquid magic carried me afar
and glimmered like the brightest shining star.
I placed my wings beneath me like a boat
and let the waters sing their trickle sound.
They carried me to places quite remote
and cradled me as through the woods we wound.
A song escaped as music from my throat
and I began to sing these words profound.
“The magic Forest has invited me”
and all joined in with perfect harmony.
The currents carried me as did the song,
I sang with all the creatures of the wood.
The Forest stream had carried me along
and every lovely note was understood.
I knew my voyage would not be too long,
for all the Forest magic is for good.
That’s why the humans rarely see the Elves,
because they keep these secrets to themselves.

Another form that You pen with such Beauty-

Love this and the rhyme that pulls the reader in to kiss the screen

I did not fly in a house-
nor see a flying cow-
but You had me land near

where Dreams flow
Thank You for sharing Your Heart and Spirit~

You sing of the time of the birth or our people
When magic was freer and open to all
The forest our church and the trees were the steeple
And you with your song were the clarion call
Vanimle sila tiri.
