WOOD SORREL FAIRY

A fairy sitting
among the wood sorrel.
Pale purple flowers
grow under the trees.
It's shady as she 
watches a squirrel
dash through the sorrel
making a breeze.

    I'm still imagining what it would be like to have a pocket fairy.  I could send her off to do errands for me.  To find things out for me, to check on my friends.  If you had a small fairy what would you do with him or her?  Can you write a poem about that?  Have fun with your imagination.

    Oxalis is common in my area. I'm visualizing this scene in a spot in my yard. I love the idea of a pocket fairy. I hope she finds a home in book by Joy Acey!

      Maybe it should be a pocket pixie for alliteration.
