the fairy in her orchard

as jennifer ran through the orchard
eating the fruit that had fallen
from the trees that held up the sky
when she heard an ever soft calling

she looked around for a bit
and shrugged off what she was so sure she heard
and as she went on her way, she looked round her sides
and soon spotted a figure, small and absurd.

her wings beat softly,
sprinkled with sparkle
and her face whispered innocence,
as she flew in small circles

she slowly made her way
and sat in the air in front of the girl
and offered to play
and the girl agreed, though slightly unsure

(with good reason, no question
since a fairy's a lousy friend
for they can't help but be trouble
which leads to relationships'ends)

but she was unwise
in the affairs of fairies
and went on with her to run
through the forest of oranges and cherries.

and after a day of fun
they sat down to rest
and as they remained in the shade
the fairy accommodated the guest

and as jennifer fell into sleep
the fairy fetched a rock
and soon, when the girl finally rose
she rose with her pig tails-
cleanly cut off.
