 "Fairies play as much
a part in our lives as breathing does. Why? Because Fairies represent the childlikeness
that is contained within the heart and soul of every man and woman. They represent the
mystic. The Magic. Play and fun. They tell us that we don't need to grow up. We just need
to grow." (Inner Star
Magazine)
I adopted this dancing fairy for you, Heidi
She's dancing to music provided by "Enya"
We, the Fairies, blithe and antic,
Of dimensions not gigantic,
Though the moonshine mostly keep us,
Oft in orchards frisk and peep us.
Stolen sweets are always sweeter,
Stolen kisses much completer,
Stolen looks are nice in chapels,
Stolen, stolen, be your apples.
When to bed the world are bobbing,
Then's the time for orchard-robbing;
Yet the fruit were scarce worth peeling,
Were it not for stealing, stealing.
Hunt, Leigh
I'd Love to be a Fairy's Child
CHILDREN born of fairy stock
Never need for shirt or frock,
Never want for food or fire,
Always get their heart's desire:
Jingle pockets full of gold,
Marry when they're seven years old.
Every fairy child may keep
Two strong ponies and ten sheep;
All have houses, each his own,
Built of brick or granite stone;
They live on cherries, they run wild--
I'd love to be a Fairy's child.
Graves, Robert. 1918. Fairies and Fusiliers.
