Garden Realm


I know a fairy realm
Beneath wisteria blooms
Brushing against the well
Where wishes gleam below
That’s where the fey folk dwell

I know a fairy realm
Where lily pads are boats
Sailing o’er magic springs
Hawthorn twigs for oars and
Petal sails like small wings

I know a fairy realm
Each fey was a garden there
With glowing flowers bright
I simply long to see
That bloom both day and night

I know a fairy realm
I think they know of me
For my garden’s changing
Every passing season
Some mystic plant is growing

I know a fairy realm
My garden’s their realm too
In winter roses bloom
And flowers I can’t name
Scintillate ’neath the moon

  1. What a wonderful garden! I love that the fairies have a home in the wisteria and that their boats are lily pads. I am sure we have fairies in our garden too.

  5. I know a fairy realm
    deep in forest dell
    where sprites dance
    with sheer delight
    sip nectar under spell
