The Sugar Plum Fairy
The Sugar Plum Fairy is rare and sweet,
There's laughter where e'er she goes,
She brings such light and joy and love,
She's there when e'er it snows.
She lays a soft white blanket down,
It's glitters in the sun,
She helps the spring with its fresh job,
When all of winter's done.
When summer comes she does not sleep,
But reads herself away,
With biscuits and some cups of tea,
She waits for winter's day.
When winter comes she's back again,
Back again so merry,
Her laugh it tinkles through the air,
Laugh of the Sugar Plum Fairy.

Haha no. She has all winter
Haha no.
She has all winter to have fun with the other snow fairies, I know that she would enjoy a lovely quiet summer to herself. :)
Beautifully done!
What a whimsical poem... now we know just what the Sugar Plum Fairy does year-round. For some reason, before I read this poem, I was associating the Sugar Plum Fairy with those gum drop thingies. I'm all the better for your poem, Claire!

So vivid! The pictures of summer and winter were beautiful, but for some reason I felt sorry for the Sugar Plum Fairy - doesn't she ever get lonely?
