nothing i love better

than to see

children, adults, pets, families

in

wagons

strollers

on foot

on bicycles

walking

running

skipping

being carried.

stopping by

to pay a visit

to the fairy garden

in all four seasons.

chatting

playing

smiling

bringing gifts

acting out stories

taking tokens

noting changes

moving things

telling secrets

making memories

leaving special things behind.

spending a little quiet time

with the fairies

before they head

back into life 

in a 

busy grown-up world. 

—

child of the pure, unclouded brow
and dreaming eyes of wonder!
though time be fleet and I and thou
are half a life asunder,
thy loving smile will surely hail
the love-gift of a fairy tale.

  10. The little girls next door planted a fairy garden in my flower bed a few years ago. Their mother came over to explain. We laughed, but I did tell her if it spawned any new fairies, I expected her to raise them. Fun memory; the girls are sadly too old for that now.

  20. May I just say, that you always always have wonderful posts that put a smile on my face. Sometimes your pictures with just one line that you wrote along save my day, when I feel grumpy or sad (no pressure *wink*). Thank you! I just needed to say this, because you regularly like my posts, but I rarely comment on your blog or anything. But I adore your blog, and if I kept expressing this everytime, I wouldn’t get around to do anything else. So here, for the whole past year: I love what you are doing here! Happy New Year to you! May your fairy garden bloom and be filled with life. (Out of context that might sound awkward, or even a bit rude…*tihi*)
