Hairy Fairy

Hairy Fairy
what's that you carry?
So small and fragile
and lit up like a candle.

Step careful there
watch your long hair!
Lest you tumble
and your parcel crumble

Where do you go
with your steps so slow?
How far can you travel
with a package so fragile?

Being such and old hairy fairy
being given SUCH a quest to carry
with hair down past your toes
there is not far that you can go!

Ah! There in the distance
I can see the fairy ring.
It must be THAT circle you seek

trying your best
not to trip on your feet.

Clear pasture lays between us here
and the fairy circle about 12 steps over there.
Patiently the fairies wait
for you, the baker, to bring the cake!!
