Moondust
From her tower, the Fairy flew
to catch some early morning dew,
before the moon in all her glory
had time to tell a sunnier story,
as the day began to break,
and the world became awake.
Monday's Child supplied the original 1930's illustration by Ann Anderson - thanks bkm! I enjoyed waving my magic wand over the picture...
oh wow, pure beauty!!!!
ReplyDeletei like stories from fairyland. steven
ReplyDeleteThe blue colors of fancy! Very nice.
ReplyDeleteMagical!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!
ReplyDeleteThat was really sweet!
ReplyDeleteYou've put a gentle spin on the illustration. While I think it's lovely, it's also sort of spooky; that 'fairy' has bat wings.
ReplyDeleteGreat poem to go with a great picture. Synergy of a sort. There's probably a better word, but that's all I've got right now.
ReplyDeleteYour moondust scattered very nicely here. Love the hints of a magical place.
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting here.
Every little girl's dream , to become a fairy in a floating dress and a glittery crown . Perhaps your fairy will share her moondust ?
ReplyDeleteLove your Moondust Jinsky and your support...because so many responsed this, how could I not continue....thank you for your comments and your ungoing support....bkm
ReplyDeleteThis takes me back to childhood. I would have been delighted with this artwork (still am.) I longed for there to be fairies so much that it almost hurt.
