dew fairy

there's a secret part of the garden
where nobody knows, just me
early morning i go there
with no-one else to see

my toes are wet with all the dew
as i gently dance amongst the grass
and marvel at the sky's colours
sun rising as i thank my lucky stars

no people, no elves, no pixies,
my special place where nobody knows
not very big, but neither am i
shush, don't tell anyone i go

it's special because it's quiet
and i can be quite alone
enjoy the dew and sun and rain
and totally feel at home

my toes and wings get very wet
but i really don't mind at all
all my senses are alive
i really cannot fall

even wet wings are able to fly
when sounds i hear nearby

touch the petals of daisies
taste the dew and rain
hear the rabbits frolicking
watch the sun again
and
smell the freshness of another brand new day
