Where the Fairies Hide

 

In the dreary weary heat I crawled

Burrowing deep within a thickety bush

To saw and cut and clip away the growth

That had long formed a formless cloud of green

 

There might be little elves or fairies, I hoped

Long hidden away among broken bits of pots

In a childhood world of secrets and dreams

Among dappled shadows dizzying me

 

I thought I heard soft giggles and soft feet

But maybe it was only the dreary weary heat
