Just a thought. Could you use the old word 'bid the couple live in love divine? I think you must have been a fairy in your last life and gave birth to a fairy as well. Both of you love the impish gatherings and little people that not many humans see. I loved all of your poem/story and hope you will write more. Because I belong to the one-legged garden gnome club!

    Good Morning Brooke, I'm not just a one-legged garden gnome and now you owe me a coffee! Love, Kay.

I would love to know what's been concealed. This poem could go on another 20 or so sections for my money and great delight. I have enjoyed it so very much. But the sun is coming up and the party is over so I must leave like the rest of the magical guests. What a delight this has been!

    If it went on another 20 sections, I would go batty! Maybe someday I will add to it, but for now, beddy bye! THanks so much, Maryellen :-) Brooke

It's a lovely poem in a very good writting, about enchanted places with magic beings where the core of the poem is love.
Congratulations!
Best regards,
Laren

How about if I pay you?:) I popped in for just a minute to catch the last part. I think now that this really happened or you could not have told this tale!!!!!!


Great job and work. Jean

Hi Brooke...I was glad you see you had posted number three in this series while the second part was still clear in my mind. This one is every bit as wonderful as the other two. I love the ending, it is appropriate to leave the reader wanting to know what has been concealed! Roses at your feet...you may now take a bow....blessings....chey

    I had to write them one right after another or I would have lost sight myself of what had gone on before! Thanks so much, Chey :-) You are truly gracious with such lovely comments. Brooke

Never know indeed! lol I'm so glad you were invited in to this event. The whole thing flows together well, with some wonderful images - definitely one for your grandchildren. :)

A little bit of Midsummers Night's Drean mixed within the poetry you have written. Each part is better than the last yet together as a whole they were quite wonderful. Now, sadly, back to unpacking.

I just realized that I didn't add any of these to my bookcase. What was I thinking? LOL A beautiful, albeit bittersweet, end to this poem-story. (I say "bittersweet" because it ended well, but I didn't want it to end!)

Great work - a pleasure to read. I am now off to bookcase. Cheers!
