Fantasy Morning

Bright droplets of dew  upon the green grass
The sun reflecting down to make tiny rainbows across the field
Lilly fairies awake yawning,strecthing ,rubbing their eyes with tiny fist. 
Look! The knomes are emerging for their morning chores!
They are busy, there is honey to be collected and water to draw.
The mermaids are bathing in the cool river water giggling and splashing.
If you look closely  at those butterflies you will see they arent butterflies at all
No the are pixies! The most beautiful pixies you have ever seen.
Watch out for them though, do not let their beauty decieve you,
They are naughty! They wil pinch your nose and take off laughing hysterically.
Don't think you will catch those unicorns, with the long flowing manes.
No, they only come to maidens, everyone knows that.
You can watch them prance though, they like that.
Unicorns are vain creatures, they know they are beautiful.
Down deep in the cavern, is a massive blue jeweled body,
with puffs of smoke coming from his nostrils.
Never fear! he will be asleep for days, he is stuff full of that last villiage he raided.
Greedy things, dragons!

Imagination like my own

This is a extract from the childrens stories I used to write, but with more detail and enchantment, a truly lovely world that never grows old, it does exist, with people like you to keep it alive. Ray

I love fantasy poems about all those wondrous creatures great and small. There are a few spelling mistakes here, nothing to terrible, though. Nice work. Always, Cat
