The "Little People"

Missing image
Pixies, fairies,
leprechauns
disappear
at break of dawn.
When the moon
shines bright above,
wee folk dance,
entranced by love.

Enchanting place,
this fairyland...
seen only if
you understand
that little people
are 'real', too...
here to share
their 'gifts' with you.

Magic beings,
ah, what a sight...
making music,
shining bright!
Dazzled eyes
gaze with delight
at
little creatures
of the night!

    I am moved by your beautiful montage and poetry Maureen. My only added pleasure is that it is dedicated to welcoming me to the group.

    I think I can speak on behalf of the wee folk in expressing complete delight in your magical write.

    Heartfelt thanks.

    Wonderful, Maureen,
    as light and bright
    as pixie wings!

    I'm sure pix will appreciate this!

    If any have not yet visited the pixiestix page,

    Dear Maur,

    The creation of this poem for Pixiestix is just another indication of the sweetness of your nature that I have come to love so much over the years. I must however, be honest and write in return:

    "The only time I get to watch the little folk at play
    is after my fourth glass of Scotch (when Edna is away)
    'coz when the Queen is here she lets me have but two or three
    which isn't quite enough to make the faeries come to me."

    Now, may I ask you, as my beloved Group Official, to write a poem also to welcome Purrsanthema who has a family of five adorable felines?

    Applause for a brilliant and charming poem. Much love as always, XXX Hugh (R.)

    Ah Pix will like this a lot! Not only because it is about a subject that is fond to her but that you wrote it to welcome her. That is very nice of you Maureen.

    And I know Pix fairly well and you'll like her. I'm not sure who wouldn't...Sir Ima maybe.

    And there is the video I always like so much!

    A for being so nice to the newbie.

      My pleasure, Yem! I happen to be very fond of little people (even the human kind).

      I'm eager to see what our next contest's subject will be!

      Thank you for the flower!

      ♥ Maureen

        Oh, thanks for reminding me. It'll be another options contest. 25 options I think. I'll get that up in the next half hour or so.
