Fairies Song

Suzanne Mondoux · 31 October 2020

It’s a new day, it’s a new song for one and for all So it seems, to be in this new day before me, before us Can this be conceived as such instead of a fantasy seen by all Pretend that you’re in this new day of wonder and mystery To be discovered without fairies song in your ear Impossible I say, and why would you want to live as such Fairies songs is what keeps me alive and curious and interested in such a world I look for others in this non fairy world, terribly boring I say I like the look of fairies and the sound the their voices I like the world they’ve created for me amongst the ones they call human beings I like the fairies songs at the tip of my tongue and always in my step And I like when I take flight with them The fairies songs are the life of this world, many don’t know this They live in the trees and the flowers You see their faces in the icicles hanging from trees Fairy songs are the new world amongst the one humans have created I prefer the fairy world to all that we’ve seen Can such fairies song be real to everyone I say – of course – let all wondrous and fantastical things be real Let the imagination of the fairies and their songs and animal beings be seen as you want to see them as beings amongst this world as you and me Together we can live together, as fantastical as you wish it to be Human being, animal being, and fairy songs --- such a stormy imagination What if, it can all be real, we live together
