Fairy woods where the wild bee wings
Fairy places, fairy things,
Fairy woods where the wild bee wings,
Tiny trees for tiny dames--
These must all be fairy names!
Tiny woods below whose boughs
Shady fairies weave a house;
Tiny tree-tops, rose or thyme,
Where the braver fairies climb!
Fair are grown-up people's trees,
But the fairest woods are these;
Where, if I were not so tall,
I should live for good and all.
--Robert Louis Stevenson

Fantabulous poem!!! It kind of sums it all up. I forget how much I love Robert Louis Stevenson!
I do believe I could find a fairy in the orange canna
I love RLS, and this picture.
Wonderful!
Another perfect picture/poem combination.
