ANIMAL FAERIES
(For Halley)
This animal faerie appeals
Wearing her orange peel high heels…
Her swim suit attire
Awaits the transpire
Of swimming with otters and eels.
Her skirt is a fine autumn leaf
With her swimsuit and herself beneath…
She greets a new dawn
By waking a fawn,
Her time before daylight is brief.
Like water faeries off a pond,
This animal faerie’s beyond…
The sight of adults
Who prefer the pulse
Of things to which they can respond.
Stay in faerie worlds while you’re able,
Before you lose interest in “fable”…
There may come a time
To hear other rhyme,
With new interests spread on your table!
—Uncle Jonathan Caswell
