I was looking for fairies in the Garden
I left a little cottage teapot for them
So that they could set up house
Perhaps they would prefer to sleep within the flowers
If I were a fairy I’d live amongst the poppies
Their big papery petals would be my walls
and close by I would have lupins and foxgloves and hollyhocks too
Their lovely fragrance would surround me as I
drift
off
to
sleep

In her I see my 7 year old all grown up. I’m utterly captivated. I simply can not stop looking at her. And the vibrancy in your work… wonderful. Thank you for posting this.
