My Fairy My Friend

I ran with a beautiful fairy for awhile;

I met her in God's garden

And marveled at how she ran so free.

She sprinkled me with fairy dust

And her brightness and lightness

Refreshed me for a time.

Now she has gone....



The echoes of her laughter

I hear tinkling in my dreams

And sometimes when I am in that place

Between sleep and awake

I see her still.



A beautiful fairy was here

For just a short time

But this place is far too cruel

For beautiful fairies like you....

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This is in tribute to a very special friend of mine.... some people are just too good to stay here on earth for a long time.

Tanya, This is just so very lovely. I loved it. It moved me very much, for I feel the same way. It seems like we lose the good ones far too early for us, they are needed for bigger and better things than this world has to offer. Great poem- I think one of your best!
