The Song of the Daisy Fairy
Come with me and play with me,
I’m the babies’ flower;
Make a necklace gay with me,
Spend the whole long day with me,
Till the sunset hour.
I must say Good-night, you know,
Till tomorrow’s playtime;
Close my petals tight, you know,
Shut the red and white, you know,
Sleeping till the daytime.
Flower Fairies of the Spring
~~ Cicely Mary Barker ~~
Today is midsummer day and a day of not only the magic of fairies but also a day for me to celebrate. I love the autumn and winter season best and today marks the shortening of the days. May today brings you joys of summer's bounty.....

I love the flower fairies!!!! My oldest is called Cicely, after the herb Sweet Cicely! Hope you had a wonderful Midsummer. I think you've got your wish too as it's like winter here today!

This is one of my favorite little poems...I love it! And of cource the artist is like no other! To answer the question you left on my blog recently...yes, I have read The Secret Garden, and it is one of my very favorite stories!
Blessings!
