As the daylight broke into the dawn,
I walked across the dew filled lawn.
Leaving my tracks fresh and new,
While the sky seemed amazingly blue.
The birds sang in a cheerful song,
And the appealing notes they held so long,
Let me know that I belong.

And in their song I believe I hear,
The name of someone that is so dear.
This might have been a longing desire,
But the source of this I could not acquire.
Seemingly to float on the edge of the wind,
As I watch leaves twirl and the limbs bend.
It is a hand the trees lend,

Pointing towards the path I must travel,
I take the path in hope it will unravel.
The mystery that builds upon my mind,
Not knowing who or what I will find.
I know this path will lead to the end,
Wishing to see the message it will send.
It was time to begin.

Along the path I meet an elegant fairy,
She is not what I thought, on the contrary.
She wore wisps of silk, around her hair,
If I said she was striking I would not be fair.
She held sweet flowers of a spring bouquet,
Looking as beautiful as a bride on her day.
With nothing to say,

I throw my arms up in sweet surrender,
For her touch is warm and tender.
I learn this is not my paths end,
Instead I am to travel forward again.
Before I go, the fairy whispers to me,
Of all the things I should come to see.
“Be true to thee,

And you shall see what is meant for you.
I know by this time you have not a clue,
But always remember what is in your heart,
This is the only place you will find true art.”
So I leave the fairy with sadness and regret,
To travel this wonders path and not forget,
My hearts debt.
