Summer Fae
Beside lake of crystalline waters,
Under sky of soft twilight -
Creatures emerge from hidey-holes
Into the balmy Summer night
Hear the laughter upon the wind,
Weaving about your feet -
Dragonflies dance about Him
Entranced by Summer’s beat
Hear His voice this Summer’s night,
Invoking playful imaginations,
See him lazing by water’s edge
In a daze of sweet sensation
Smiling at the playful antics of
Shimmering water sprites,
His song cools the parched earth
He tends through Summer night
