Forest Fairies

Submitted by Keri on Wed, 01/29/2014 - 08:18

There was a little cubby
In the nook of a nook
Under a log
Behind a waterfall.

In it lived a whisper
Of a legend of a secret
Of a myth
Named Alice.

She was the fairy of the forest.
Though she never told a soul.
Her job was to keep things happy.
But she was growing old.

I love this -

Of a legend of a secret
Of a myth
Named Alice."

This made me happy :).

Cute! I liked the second stanza best, and the last line.
