Hi leather,
When I was a kid, fairies were very real. We searched for them among the fireflies at night. We called them pixies. Of course, we never found one. But it was fun looking. And just think, they were watching us when we weren't watching. That's so magical.

You managed a nice entry for the ABC Poetry contest, and I wish you Good Luck!
It doesn't rhyme, but my favorite line is
"Fairies watch you when you aren't watching."

Cheers,
Kimbob

    Hi, Kimbob. I enjoyed hearing how you searched for pixies (fairies) among the fireflies as a kid. That had to be fun.
    I also enjoyed getting your review and all the stars--and hearing which line was your favorite. Thanks again for everything.

Wonderful poem about fairies. Excellent entry for the ABC Poetry Contest. Its not easy to make an abc poem flow. Yours is not forced.

I love the imagery and presentation.

I love fairy tales so was drawn to your poem about them and how they are hiding just out of sight. And watching us too. Oh, what are they up to?
Best of luck in the contest.

Very nice presentation here with all the color coordination going on. Very pretty!

I will have to keep my eyes open for those tiny creatures while I'm working in my flower beds today:-)

    Thanks, Pam, for your review, all the stars, and the comments.
    Your comment about the presentation helps me understand how much visuals can enhance a submission.
    Yes, watch for fairies while you work in the flower beds--that's prime real estate.

Very nice ABC poem, Leather. I have always wondered if fairies hang around in the winter. I never thought that when I get that feeling that someone is watching me, it is probably fairies.

    Paul, you are a 'deep thinker.' I know that because you are the only person who has wondered about fairies in the winter--excellent question.
    Thanks so much for the review and all those stars.
