Fairy-land

Invocation to the tiny.

If you fall down

On your knees

And look

And see

Those tiny beings,

|

If you forget

For moment brief

And smell

And feel

Minuscule things,

|

If magic touches

Your perception

And lifts

And opens

Fine sensations,

|

If there’s a day

In every year

And time

And space

When you are near,

|

If you could only

Let them come

And tell

And sing

With gentlest charm,

|

You shall be gifted

Wonder’s right

Your dreams will fill

Entire nights,

|

You won’t forget

This magic spell

The sun and moon’s

Breath in your sails,

|

You won’t depart

Without returning

To simple words’

Grand ceremony.
