This was a light-hearted, enjoyable read! I probably shouldn't admit this but I do believe in fairies and your poem helped to confirm my belief by creating wonderful visuals. I can picture her, flying high and low; I can here her singing, etc...Your rhyming is well done, it doesn't sound forced which aids in giving the poem a nice even flow. I think kids would love it poem as well as adults like me who are still kids at heart! Your title and 1st verse drew me in and your ending was the perfect ending. Long story short, Nicely done!

We had beautiful books as children
and parents and sisters read to us
Gorgeous color plates....and black
and white...Super paintings..pictures
lithos....

I remember the stories...and throughout
Poems like this
I forget that till reading your work

Thank U for bringing back a touch
of magic Rhiannon!

Mr Wolf!

just share my favourite Fairy poem.
"Jane" by John Masefield

In June time once, as I was going
Up Happen Hill, by Lob’s Pound,
I saw Them, many as snow snowing,
Hymning their Queen and dancing round.
In glitter and sparkle they were turning,
Scattering dewdrops in the green,
Their jewels shone, their eyes were burning,
And O the Beauty of their Queen.
And O the beauty of their singing,
It was as beautiful as She,
Perfect in tune, in time, and bringing
A deathlessness to mortal me.
So life I knew has this for kernel,
This marvel to which man is blind:
We make a blur round an Eternal
For ever shaming humankind.
They streamed away, away, before me,
With chimes like little silver bells,
They opened doors of glory for me,
And now I think of nothing else.

Great Title. I couldn't resist reading this! It was such an enjoyable out read! It has a lyrical feel to it and each verse is well executed. One flows into the next easily. I love the repetition at the beginning of each line and then the 'summation' (for lack of a better word right now) as the last line of each verse. I see no need for improvements, if there are some they're hiding behind 'a fairy.'...LOL!
Long story short, on a weather wise gloomy day here, this was the uplighting read I needed.

I think a child would love it too!

on another poem about your use of alliteration, I am equally impressed by your ability to use effective repetition, something I have learned to do sparingly. One of the few where I indulged repeats was a poem called Anne which I shared on this website.
