Do you believe in fairies?

I think I just saw one...dancing along the rippling waters of the brook, looking at her reflection. Or over there in the garden, perfuming herself with the scent of roses...don't you see her? Just over there?

Fairies in the sunshine are the most beautiful, aren't they?

There she is! The lovely fairy!

"Don't fairies fly?" you ask. Of course they do! Can't you see her wings?

"Garden fairies come at dawn, Bless the flowers then they're gone."

A true fairy, indeed. A fairy if I ever saw one!

"Each faerie breath of summer, as it blows with loveliness, inspires the blushing rose."

"Spread your wings and let the fairy in you fly away!"

"We the Fairies, blithe and antic, Of dimensions not gigantic, Though the moonshine mostly keep us, Oft in orchards frisk and peep us." ~Randolph Thomas

"Of all the minor creatures of mythology, fairies are the most beautiful, the most numerous, the most memorable."~Andrew Lang

"Light she was and like a fairy..." ~Percy Montrose

"A rustle in the winds reminds us a fairy is near."

"The Realm of Fairy is a strange land, lying just beyond the fields we know..."

"Life itself is the most wonderful fairy tale."~Hans Christian Anderson

"And though you should live in a palace of gold, or sleep in a dried up ditch, You could never be as poor as the fairies are, and never so rich." ~Rose Fyleman
"Fairies are invisible and inaudible like angels. But their magic sparkles..." ~Lynn Holland
"When the first baby laughed for the first time, its laugh broke into a thousand pieces, and they all went skipping about, and that was the beginning of fairies." ~James Matthew Barrie

Look, the fairy blush upon your face,
The softness of your hair, your grace,
Look just the way the fairies do!
There must be some fairy love in you.
A story of a south seas paradise soon to come! Thank you for dropping by! And watch for the work of a fairy today...it's all around!

Wow, Kayla, those look great. Taking pictures outside always works better than inside for some reason, doesn't it ... :)
