I hear them whisper ''here she goes, she's off with the faeries again"

Hullo there all you would be-if you could be faeries, pixies, gnomes, goblins and elves,
that like to stay and play a while in our wonderful fantasy realm, where, just like children,
we don't need any excuses to join in and simply enjoy re-visiting our childhood days.

I understand that it does us a great deal of good to take a break from our on-going
busy lives and set aside a little time to `get in touch with our inner child',
for this is where we are able to access our Alpha mind state again,
just as we used to daily, up 'til we started growing out of it around the age of ten.

My friend Tina Volk has kindly agreed to assist me with content here,
in a very similar way we did in a Discussion called `Our Get-A-Way Gazebo'
that can be found in Mary Snowden's Group called `Spirituality and Consciousness'
here on TBD.

I heartily encourage folk who would like to join in and post their pictures, comments
and/or replies when they are happy to, and above all to have fun and simply ENJOY!

Come away, O human child!
To the waters and the wild
With a faery hand in hand,
For the world's more full of weeping than you can understand.
~William Butler Yeats, "The Stolen Child"

This is a work of fiction. All the characters in it, human and otherwise, are imaginary, excepting only certain of the fairy folk, whom it might be unwise to offend by casting doubts on their existence. Or lack thereof. ~Neil Gaiman

And as the seasons come and go, here's something you might like to know. There are fairies everywhere: under bushes, in the air, playing games just like you play, singing through their busy day. So listen, touch, and look around - in the air and on the ground. And if you watch all nature's things, you might just see a fairy's wing. ~Author Unknown

That is great Ozzie,

Garden fairies come at dawn,
Bless the flowers then they're gone.
~Author Unknown

Superb specimens you have there Tina...

[ozzieowl]

Wind chimes in your yard will serenade garden creatures - squirrels, fairies and angels. ~Author Unknown

[Tina]

Sweet faeries do love the twinkle of chimes, they as are the humming birds are attracted to the colors also, bright flowers and the smell. They like nice things. How smart are they. Do you know OzzieOwl what the faeries like to eat? I wonder if anyone knows...

[ozzieowl]

"No" I don't know what the faeries eat, but whatever it is, it must be very tiny and delicate,
and full of energy-giving nutrients for all that flying around they do!

Where did the little fairy go
I cannot follow, I'm too slow
I love to see her here and there
she dances 'round 'bout everywhere

Where did the little fairy go
I dare not follow, for I'm slow
She comes to gardens, wild and bright
She disappears when it falls night!

[ozzieowl]

She is so beautiful....
Grandaughters and Grandsons, truly are a sheer delight,
my little old man inside my ten year old grandson is more
than half the reason that I was lead to doing this.
I can't thank you enough for sharing with us again Marge.

Cameron is a `force' to be reckoned with lol!
(Notice how Cammy has deliberately kept his lips together -
he had recently lost one of his baby front teeth back then,
and it makes me wonder when it is that we become conscious of
our body image we portray to others - fascinating hey.)

"That's it...that's how they used to look while we walking through bush when I was a little girl"....

Thanks so much Twisted Thistle,
and maybe our modern house designers could think about houses having inverted flaps
for all kinds of weather - nature is amazing.....
