Fall Moonlight.
I wrote this back in 2001.
The moon rose over the pine trees,
waaaay up in the Deep Woods.
The pixies and the elves,
decided to have a frolic or three,
as you can plainly see.
I'm the only human hereabouts,
and I got me camera chimera,
or maybe camera obscura,
I never can tell !
But there they are,
dancing on the Fairy Green,
in the Fall Moonlight.
In their costumes filmy,
look like something old and bold,
from a Time Far Away !
Their flutes play loverly music,
like nothing I ever heard before !
And then they stop.
I wonders why,
and creeps closer...
closer...
"Heeey ! Watch it Human !"
I looked around for the tiny loud voice,
it was coming from my bulbous nose.
Then, a small, light bearing Pixie,
did appear before my eyes.
"Bub, its cold out here ! So we hope you are satisfied,
and got yer poem all down Pat ! We are going over to Mike's,
for a fresh brew of Fall Beer ! Come on all of ya ! I'm freezin'
my beeeeehind off in the clothes Humans expect us to wear !"
Then they flew off, into the Deep Dark,
up here in the hills, where the music be,
and I'm lost,
'cause they took all of the lanterns with them !
Heeeeellllllllpppppppp !
[ a distant roar, of lion. ]
Uh oh.
