The Fairy Dew Drop
February 1915
……………………..
Down by the spring one morning
Where the shadows still lay deep,
I found in the heart of a flower
A tiny fairy asleep.
.
Her flower couch was perfumed,
Leaf curtains drawn with care,
And there she sweetly slumbered,
With a jewel in her hair.
.
But a sunbeam entered softly
And touched her as she lay,
Whispering that ’twas morning
And fairies must away.
.
All colors of the rainbow
Were in her robe so bright
As she danced away with the sunbeam
And vanished from my sight.
.
‘Twas while I watched them dancing,
The sunshine told me true,
That my sparkling little fairy
Was lovely Drop O’Dew.
.
