A Life Invisible

There was a tiny fairy princess
That lived in the shaded wood-
in a dress made out of spiderwebs
with a dandelion hood.

She built a house of emerald moss
with a tulip as her bed-
Her lamp was a tiny firefly
that she hung about her head.

She danced among the violets
and sang amid the flowers-
That tiny fairy princess
lived such fulfilled hours!

But one day as she roamed about,
the wicked North wind blew-
and she fell and drowned in a tiny puddle
of honeysuckle dew.
