The Most Outstanding Fall

Gosh— I’m surprised to see that its already Fall.

I guess I needed sleep after summers garden brawl.

Waking in this pile of brightly colored leaves,

has left dust all over my crumpled pixie sleeves.

I remember running from the ugly troll named Saul,

chasing me through the bee balm field… as I recall.

I dashed and hid between jagged rocky cleaves.

Saul spied me and cried out to his chummy thieves.

They tripped over their big ugly feet landing in a sprawl.

I darted to the garden bed disappearing behind the gazing ball.

I closed my eyes exhausted! Thank goodness I deceived,

the mossy breath, big-nose goons. —I fell asleep relieved.

This is going to be the most outstanding Fall of all.

Bragging to all my friends how I outsmarted Saul.

Some of the details just might not be believed.

Even so… fun and laughter are sure to be achieved.

I’ve always loved fairies and Fall, so I had to write a poem about both.
