Golden Fairy



The golden fairy shines in the dark wood

She shines and illuminates the forest dark

She dances and prances like a tiny ballerina

She dances without a care

A free spirit graceful of feet, she leaps into the air

sparkles everywhere among the trees

Singing with the denizens of the forest dark

Where the silver moon arcs across the sky

Fire flies join her in her dance joy

Dancing and twinklings up high in the sky

Among the stars twinkle twinkle

Dancing to the chorus of crickets peeper

whippoorwills also join the chorus 

of the forest dark One by one the firefly's return,

Into the forest darkly 

Just as the peepers and crickets go silent

One by one, only A lone whippoorwill sings

In the tall maple above

The golden fairy lands bows gracefully in thanks

to her forest friends then folds her wings and goes darkly.
