I'm the green fairy

[Chava]

I'm enchanted,
filled with magic dust,
fluttering along a fairy road,
whirring up the autumn leaves,
with my little fairy's tail.

I've been spotted,
by a red paint's brush,
dotted with anxiety,
and a slightly hectic flush,
my wings expand in the midnight dusk.

My enchantment perspires,
I'm followed by a glimmering trail,
I'm trying to find that closet door,
The one I got lost in a decade ago,
I'm trying to come out.

The one I got lost in so many years ago,
I'm trying to come out.

Beautiful, penetratingly absorbing. Enchanting ans enthralling. Kind of magical .

Thank you, much appreciated

nice poem with
spontaneous flare

i really like the mysteriousness about it, it was a very unique poem

[Chava]

Wow, thanks for your response. I didn't really make much of this poem, I just needed an outlet for thoughts. Thanks for your comments

[mazHur]

You are welcome

keep up the good work

And I'm the queen of Romania! (That's a sarcastic line from Dorothy Parker.)

No truly, this little ditty of yours was sweet. I liked the images and I especially, especially liked the fact that the
speaker -- the "I" in the poem -- is someone other than the
poet. It is quite good. In fact, I'm going to read it again.

[Chava]

Nothing wrong with a Romanian queendom, it's a nice country :) Appreciate your attention to detail here Aunt.

[Zombie]

is it true or did you just find an interesting twist to add on the end?

[Chava]

Well, that's the question isn't it.... Think maybe I'm still working it out

Ah! Absinthe!
(you do know that green fairy, la fee verte, is one of the names of absinthe, don't you?)
Anyhow, the title, leading our thoughts to absinthe, quite nicely warped the poem, hinting at decadence and tiredness of the fairy. we wonder whether the reference was intentional or not... Could be, could be not. Well, it is a question of interpretation.
We quite liked it, altogether.
Now, where's that bottle...

[Chava]

Well spotted Taliesin, one can always count on you
