Faeries of the Canyonlands


Red rock cliffs are lighted with gold from
the sun's rays etching across the sky revealing
a secret village belonging to the Sprites.

Storms from ancient past uniquely carve
artistically
perfect structures a place to call their home in
the canyon rocks.

A hidden city nestles in the scape under stars while
ancient songs render a lullaby through
the trees of Cedar and Pine.

Shimmering lights of gold, green, blue, and pink,
beckoning
with a delightful dance for those who see
to join them in celebration.

The Milky Way shines brightest there
above the red rock canyon where
a magical essence flows from the fey.

Little Aubrey

From the Milky Way train she flew
Then landed on the ground,
Her gown a mess, she lost her shoe,
She sits without a sound.
The sun was winking at the site
As it hid behind the mountain top.
The evening star was shining bright,
While moonbeam tickled her toes ticklish spot.
Be careful not to let her trick you
When she sits so quietly,
For when she finally finds her shoe,
She'll dance and sing delightfully.
Her wings will flutter as she fly's
Above the honeysuckle,
Then little Aubrey sings a lullaby
For little baby Tuckle.

This is one of the first paintings of a fairy I've done. However, I will be doing some of faeries that I see in rocks, trees, and even my walls from my vivid imagination. Do I believe in faeries? I most certainly do, why they are everywhere just waiting to communicate with you, dance with you, and show you all that they do in nature. There's a breeze stirring in my back yard so I must go for now. So quietly I shall tiptoe out, and I shall surely be back with another painting to share.
