Fairies and Such

In the stillness of the evening –

Hush now, don’t make a sound –

If you close your eyes and listen

You may hear them all around.

Wait patiently in silence.

Be as quiet as you can –

For the Fairies are a skittish lot

And have no trust of Man.

But, if you’re among the lucky,

And you promise not to tell,

They will lightly brush your face

With their wings to wish you well!
