WAITING IN FAIRY LAND --(SOMEWHERE IN FANTASYLAND)

As I gazed into the
distance. From out of
nowhere a tiny person
appeared. He called my
name over and over again.
Yarro, Yarro!
A name I remember from
childhood.

I was taken back to
another place in time.
To another love devine.
Days of laughter, romping
in the green meadows, lying
in his arms, kissing his
face so tenderly. Oh, face
of yesterday.

Suddenly this little fairy
took flight, landing on my
finger.Grabbed a hand full
of fairy dust, tossed it in
my eyes. I was temporarily
blinded.

As I opened my eyes, a garden
of beautiful roses appeared.
One rose more lovely than the
other. As I viewed the scene,
to my surprise, nestled in the
blossoms, sat the flowers of
my heart. Red, white, pink,
yellow, and coral roses making
up my hearts bouquet.Waiting
for my return.

Sitting in the far distance,
I noticed a black rose, rare,
new and handsome. Could this
be my fairy man? The one I have
always searched for.
