30 poems in April

April 26th

Terzanelle

A Faerie Tale
In winter's thrall beneath the moonlight's glow
dance creatures we will never, ever see.
In winter's thrall beneath the moonlight's glow

Unseelie court resides and all will be
in cold and darkness.Only faintly lit
dance creatures we will never, ever see.

Unending, tiny figures twirl and flit
and music plays, a dark, haunting refrain
in cold and darkness, only faintly lit.

We humans never, ever could sustain
such movement and at such frenetic pace
and music plays, a dark, haunting refrain.

Their names a secret to maintain the race,
a hidden world, in parallel, unseen.
Such movement, and at such frenetic pace
watched over by Unseelie king and queen
in winter's thrall beneath the moonlight's glow.
A hidden world in parallel. Unseen
in winter's thrall beneath the moonlight's glow.
