Faery

44 2 1
                                    

Her delicate frame danced in the wind,

her gossamer wings shimmering.

Her deep brown eyes were warm and sweet,

her lips a deep rose red.

But as I watch, the scene changes,

the faery is falling,

slowly,

down,

down,

down.

She hits the ground with a soft thud,

and my heart stops.

Her sweet face,

her heavenly presence,

gone.

In her place, a deep dark cloud of smoke.
