By Stella Blu McFall

I was born on a Blue moon month. My favourite number is three and being in nature with animals fills my spirit. My body is 12 years old. My spirit animal is a rhinoceros. I play the cello, the ukulele, and the recorder. I dance and sing every day. My wish for the world is that we realise that the earth is a sacred place and treat her with respect…

Now, remember the fairies…

“The wall is silence, the grass is sleep,
Tall trees of peace their vigil keep,
And the Fairy of Dreams with moth-wings furled
Plays soft on her flute to the drowsy world.”
~Ida Rentoul Outhwaite

“When the winds of March are wakening the crocuses and crickets,
Did you ever find a fairy near some budding little thickets,…
And when she sees you creeping up to get a closer peek
She tumbles through the daffodils, a playing hide and seek.”
~Marjorie Barrows

“Blind folk see the fairies.
Oh, better far than we,
Who miss the shining of their wings
Because our eyes are filled with things
We do not wish to see.”
~Rose Fyleman

“Soft moss a downy pillow makes, and green leaves spread a tent,
Where Faerie fold may rest and sleep until their night is spent.
The bluebird sings a lullaby, the firefly gives a light,
The twinkling stars are candles bright, Sleep, Faeries all, Good Night.”
~Elizabeth T. Dillingham

“The fairies went from the world, dear,
Because men’s hearts grew cold:
And only the eyes of children see
What is hidden from the old…”
~Kathleen Foyle

“Hand in hand, with fairy grace,
Will we sing, and bless this place.”
~William Shakespeare
