The Faerie Ring
C.R. Fraasch
The Faerie Ring
Fiddle-dee, faeries three
Dancing round the oaken tree
Breath of holly's faintest scent
Follows where ye've dare to went
One has hair of dewey dreams
She sings of owls' hooting schemes
One knows what lies in darkened hearts
She'll tell you all the dour parts
Faerie three I do not know
With whims as passing as spring's snow
She dances to the wind's slow beat
Eyes ablaze with autumn's heat
Thrice and thrice and thrice around
Mossy steps won't touch the ground
And mushrooms tell of ancient things
When faeries dance a faerie ring
Fiddle-dee, faeries three
Dancing round the oaken tree
Breath of holly's faintest scent
Follows where ye've dare to went
One has hair of dewey dreams
She sings of owls' hooting schemes
One knows what lies in darkened hearts
She'll tell you all the dour parts
Faerie three I do not know
With whims as passing as spring's snow
She dances to the wind's slow beat
Eyes ablaze with autumn's heat
Thrice and thrice and thrice around
Mossy steps won't touch the ground
And mushrooms tell of ancient things
When faeries dance a faerie ring
