The Fairyloon Man

A fantasy poem about a magical man and a allegory about inspiration, creativity…and the source of it all.

The Fairyloon Man belongs to the following groups:

All Things Poetic, Artistic, Philosophical, Art Inspired by Dreams, AW Welcome Center, Childhood, Fantasy Art, Spiritual Art and Western United States Artists and Photographers

Deeply hidden in the woods resides quite a vision to see,
Here you’ll find the Fairyloon man, who waits to set you free!
To find him, through the woods you must walk, farther than ever before,
You must also believe you will see him and be ready for what he has in store…

All your fears will melt fast away when you approach his luminous light,
You’ll be drawn by wonder and beauty; you must venture to see this incredible sight!
And Oh what a sight! To see the Fairyloons dancing and floating with such joy and grace,
Yes deep in the woods, beyond logic and reason, past doubt and unbelief is the place!
There is something marvelous about his knowing smile to his beckoning eyes,
It’s as if they say “come closer…if you dare to see such a surprise?”

What other wondrous secrets does he have beyond the fantastical fairies?
You will also find enchantment within every peculiar urn and bottle he caries,
He keeps profound mysteries within every curious container,
Look to see things unexplainable, indescribable the strangest of the strange and stranger!
If you do you will soon discover upon each label something different it states,
That it is he that cricket songs, true love and genuine smiles creates.
Within his fascinating vessels are our beautiful dreams, lost marbles and birthday wishes,
He has every whisper, inspiration, laughter and all of our first kisses.
It is he that holds the essence of poetry, the origin of smiles and all warm embraces.
He possesses all things grand, unforgettable and sure to brighten everyone’s faces!
Of all of his treasures there is one that is the greatest by far,
This one you’ll find within a little golden and glowing jar.
It will pull you in, you will not be able to resist, it is known as “Hearts Desires”.
Yes he is the one, that once you’ve encountered limitlessly inspires,

All he carries is guaranteed to open your eyes, quicken your breath and fasten your pace.
His wares may cause something unexpected but will surely put a smile upon your face!
His price for the remarkable is not considered lightly or cheap,
First you must let go of what you once knew and also have very quick hands and feet!
But once the toll is paid and all 25 frogs you’ve tirelessly collected,
Present them to Zolta and off to Fairyland (By way of fairyloons) you’ll go; quicker than expected!
