Today I found a fairy realm
It’s almost too small to glimpse
I’ve marked out the country’s borders
Searching the garden’s every inch
From wood porch to coriander
Today I found a fairy realm
Underneath Rosella Purple
Tiny roads through the pumpkin patch
Hidden in the garden leaves
Wee houses made with fennel thatch
Today I found a fairy realm
The navy’s in the lily pond
A palace in the collard greens
With soaring flags of silverwhites
I hope someday I’ll meet the queen!
Today I found a fairy realm
Where tiny markets sell rhubarb seeds
Walnut mugs, and bright blue bonnets
From early morn until the eve
When lamps with dragonflies are lit
Today I found a fairy realm
I just can’t tear myself away
Amid the green there’s so much to see
One question leaves me wondering
When ever shall they find me?
Rosella Purple is a tomato.
Silverwhites are garlic.
