Faerie Tree

Faerie Tree

Leaves glow gold, blue;
The wind shakes the leaves,
The light bouncing off
As jewels.

The air bites, causing
Shivers
Of cold or awe,
No one knows.
Perhaps both…

Trees so high,
Blocking out
The sun,
Causing light
To sparkle off
The branches.

Trees glow
As if hinting at
Some ancient
Faerie castle
That once
Resided there.

One can almost see
Faeries flying from
Branch to branch,
Running errands
And beginning
Mischief.

A hint of a soft,
Ethereal song
Floating down on
The breeze.

An ancient kingdom,
Hidden in an ancient
Tree.
Mysteries of creation,
No one really knows…
