The Faerie Flies at Midnight
By solosater

The faerie was just learning to fly,
to spread her wings and soar through the sky.
But she was nervous about her form;
she’d been told t’was not the norm.
What was a faerie to do?

She made up her mind,
even if some weren’t kind
to do her very best
and worry not about the rest.
She would fly true!

So she practiced and practiced and as time passed
she found that in the races she was not always last
and as for her ascension height
it was getting to be just right
Still, she wanted more.

She decided to go out
when no one was about
and try out some brand new tricks
for the faerie land Olympics
She’d win, she swore!

So midnight it was;
the forest abuzz.
She flew to new heights
Oh, how she loved these nights,
the peace, the freedom.

At last came the games
in the stands the Gents and Dames
And with her new form
she took them by storm.
the best flier in faerie kingdom

That is the first poem I’ve written since like the third grade, I hope I didn’t screw up to badly.

Sorry Matthew, just got back here and was reading the forum. Thank you for the thought! I might still do something. For some reason I thought her birthday was today.

Just as a reminder... There is absolutely no criteria in this challenge... There should be plenty of pics to submit for Joy to choose from... Lets see some...
