The Surreptitious Pixie

The Surreptitious Pixie

‘Tis said their forms are tiny, yet
All human ills they can subdue;

Or with a wand or amulet
Can win a maiden’s heart for you;

And many a blessing know to stew
To make to wedlock bright;

Give honour to the dainty crew,
The Pixies are abroad tonight.’

By Samuel Minturn Peck 19th Century

    There are fairies at the bottom of the garden, just as I suspected! Magic, Jules- literally!

    Thanks PD I thought seen as though its nearly been a year since the ‘Faerie Queen’ image that I should re-shoot it…and to my surprise the little people are still there right where I left them in my overgrown garden!
