THE LITTLE FAIRY (Little Fairy Series)
There was a little girl. She was a little fairy. She tried to fly with heavy things, But these she couldn’t carry. She looked for help, But there was none. No able friends, And she was done. The little fairy felt lonely in all she did. She cried and raged with her heart up-ended. Where are all my friends?! She looked in cupboards. She looked in closets. She even made a bank deposit. No helpers or true friends anywhere. One day, as she was sad and mopey, Along came a fairy ship, fast and daring. The ship was steered by a captain, loving and stern. The captain said, “Get on, and learn!” The little fairy hopped on board without a word. The ship continued on, swift and sure. Among the stormy rocks and waves, a blur. “How do you do that?!” small fairy cried. This captain tipped her hat and replied, A heart that’s pure and free of pride Can ride through any storm supplied With love and joy and peace well-tried! The little fairy took her leave, And with her darling wings did weave A loving pattern through pain and tears And finally, behold, without her fears, Her heavy burdens off were sheared! - The Poem Fairy

EGO BADGER (Beastly Ego Series)
A badger is an awful pest, She’ll dig and dig and raid your nest. She’ll steal and kill and take what’s yours, Even if the tears outpour. Your comfort she will not allow, Until to her needs you will bow. She’s built so tough, She’ll bang her head, And leave your family all in dread. Of her wrath there is no end, Unless you kill her, There’s no shred Of life and dignity For your head. She takes the innocent or the blamed, There is no escape, There’s only shame. If you touch her, You she’ll maim. Can this beast ever be tamed? She must drop her whole vendetta, And take no one into her cetta. Her inner demons must be seen, Her recompense must be cleaned, Of all demand and rights let go, The way to peace for all shall show. - The Poem Fairy

LOVE POWERED WINGS (Little Fairy Series)
How was I so in the dark? I thought I knew my way. I’d just read this. I’d study that. I thought I knew where truth was at. It was all in outside things. Of trips and travels, Without heart’s wings. If I want to get somewhere, With the eyes of my heart I must see and care. It’s not so much a very hard thing. I use my love to start my wings.

THE FAIRY AND THE DRAGONFLY (Little Fairy Series)
One day in the wood, A fairy met a dragonfly. She came to her and asked her, “Why?” “Why do you keep so trim and slick, and have such wings?” “Can they do the trick?” “Why, yes!” she cried, “And I can glide, ‘Twixt waterdrops and webs so wide. I just twist and turn And upon tree and flower tops abide.” The little fairy gazed and wondered, And off her little thoughts did wander, And of all things dragonfly she pondered. My wings, they flap much like a moth’s, But dragonflies move to and fro, Like well-oiled ‘copters with nary in tow. They buzz and hum, The wind they cleave, And cut like scissors through the weave. The dragonfly does fly with love And shows her colors from above. She looks so swell in blues and blacks, But purple and white show her heart’s glow, With shoes to match her lovely flow. Who knew a dragonfly was in fashion’s show? She’s camouflaged and hid from view, As among the frogs she roams. She has her job, to clean and sweep, and keeps the swamps and streams safe, clear and deep. My dragonfly! I love you so! I am so thankful you can go, To help and cleanse and make amends For those whose suffering never ends! I send you out upon your way, To take a message every day. So bring them bliss and firmly hold Them to their vow of hearts of gold. All power and might you have to guide Those ones who on that shore of love shall abide.

THE SPIDER'S QUEST (OR, THE EGO'S DESIRE) (Beastly Ego Series)
Look at me, Can’t you see, My many eyes, My furry feet. I hide up in the corner, there, Of me you may not be aware. I make a web, It’s such a trick, The threads are not so very thick. If you’re a fly, Or just a moth, You cannot see me weave the cloth. It hangs in corners, just take care, Or you’ll be caught, in you I’ll tear A hole to suck your innards out Without a sound or any shout, I’ll lick you clean and toss you off, And this I’ll do without a cough. Why am I here? What do I share With anything that breathes the air? I will survive at any cost, And by none else will I be bossed. I eat bugs up and throw them down, I may be mean, but I’m no clown. I work at all times, day and night, I will disturb your happy flight. It’s all to keep myself alive, And if that’s what I do just to survive, Don’t you do the same? And there’s no shame. It’s all a great, big Survival game! It’s what I’m at, So just take that, And stick it in your furry hat. You suck on plants, I suck on you, So what if we all just become a pile of goo? - The Poem Fairy

BADGER TO WOLVERINE (Beastly Ego Series)
We thought I was a badger, But I’m a wolverine. A nasty little lonely girl Who’ll lick your bones clean. I have the claws and teeth, To rip you from your soul, You never will escape my grasp, Or see the day whole. I wait in holes of darkness, Seeking the unwary, To run into my countenance, Is simply very scary. If I were not so brutal, And full of anger, lo, We could be the best of friends, And comfort all our woe. An ego is a nasty thing, Although its help we need. It tears and ruins and destroys, Just like a wolverine. If we can just befriend her, And train her to be kind, She will be our greatest help, And give us peace of mind.
