A Fairy on Earth


The protogonist is a fairy that has come to grace the earth from fairyland. Being lent by Paradise to Earth under the promises of hospitality, the author laments the rough phases the fairy encounters during the stay. The author calls for immediate remedy in order to bring back the famed aura to the depressed fairy as well to have Earth reclaim it's fame as a honourable host.



Generations have recorded the lore of beauty,
Of grace compounded by wings and satin ties,
The creation that had been God’s earliest Duty,
The fairies have rightly defined the pride of skies.

Those times that thou plucked one from this clan,
A play of charity that the heaven did on thy account,
O Earth, thy fame is to be written by the élan,
Of hospitality thee displays in a fitting amount.

One such fairy from the order of paradise,
Graces thy plains like a bud in the barren gardens.
The garden awaits the splendor of her blooming trice,
And she, the spring, of which thou are a terse warden.

And then, like the callous breeze in its shoddy stride,
Thou brought disarray to her blossoming sport,
Why? Was it thy famed fear of serendipity’s chide,
That thee chose to play tricks of such pitiful sort?

May the skies and thee seek an immediate heal,
To bring to her, the charm that was her unique trait,
May thy joint efforts at the horizon reveal,
Those enticing scenes on which her dreams parade.
