In case you didn't know I write poetry. Recently I have started a fairy chapbook. Here is a fun poem for the letter J- which happens to start the name of a curious little fairy named Jena.
(You do not have permission to copy this in anyway.)
Jena
I saw a big round human once,
as white as fresh dropped snow,
with dark brown eyes and an orange nose.
I flew to say hello.
His arms extended from his sides
like branches on a tree.
My friends watched on with silly grins,
he would not speak to me.
I fluttered 'round his face once more,
to give a little show-
And then my friends called out to me,
the man was made of snow.

LOVE this! And what a great idea for a book. I'm always in awe of beautiful poetry.
Just as fun as a fairy would be, fairytastic :)
This poem is so charming and clever, Summer! I remember having to create chapbooks for my poetry writing class in college. Your fairy-themed one sounds delightful!

What a beautiful and crafty little poem. I know it's a cheesy reaction, but I just love poems that rhyme so effortlessly. Great job and nice blog!

Very cute, Summer. It will be an interesting book.
Snowmen, fairies and children, well that is a hit! Yes, I too can see the images for this one. :)
