The Magikal Forest Of Ode'A Story by anne p. murray- LadeeAnneA bewitching tale of mystikal magik; faeries, elves and enchanting joy.Once upon a time in the Magikal' Forest of Ode’Buried deep in the mystikal' forests of greene’Many majikal' creatures are seen Glittering flashes that glow in firelite' Of dancing faeries and elves in the night Pixies riding fireflies Faeries on butterflies
Gnomes dashing here and beyonde' Playing gayly across the sky blue ponds Moon babees’ flying with gossamer wings While moon goddess’ and leprechauns merrily sing ![]()
Elves riding giddily on birds and bees Dazzling and sparkling throughout the trees While us mortals sleep unaware They frolic about without a care They hide in and out amongst the glades Where during the day many children have played With elfin magic the woodland abounds Playing in the forest on faery grounds.
Now... We must get on with this magikal' tale! So, come along with me now because... We’re going into the Magikal 'Forest and open the veil
The Lourde’ and his Ladee rode mysteriously thru the nite' Her arms entwined around him tight The horse they rode was dark, glistening black He majestikally' carried them both on his back
The Lourde’ and his Ladee’ traveled swiftly thru the nit nite' Her arms entwined around him tight They rode with the wind and the shadows of dark For they both held secrets deep in their hearts “ Mystikal' spells from the Earth and the Sea " Said the Lourde' of the night to his Elfin Ladee' “ Spells”, she whispered, from the Mystik' and Olde’ Use them well he said, “ Be brave, be bold ”! With cobweb silk and dust from the stars, They made magikal' promises from lands afar “ Have no fear,” said the Lourde’'to his Elfin Ladee’ As they road thru the nite' so dark and shady
“ No longer me sweete’ shall ye be alone Magikal’ love together we’ve sown ”
With thunderous hooves they rode into the nite' The moonbeams golden, the stars glittering brite’ The ritual magik' of sorcerers and elves, Softe' green moss and bewitching spells They rode hard and fast into the night Guided safely by the stars and soft moonlite’ His hair black as midnight hers golden like the sun “ We shall soon be there,” said the Ladee’ to her Lourde’ “ We’ll find moonbeam faeries and elves with swords " They brought bewitching spells and Enchanted Scrolls They carried them tightly in mystikal' rolls The Lourde' and his Ladee’ held the magik' Key This Lourde’ and his Ladee’ of mystery They carried magikal' stones and Celtic spells They were very wise they would use them well
The Moon Beam riders had traveled to Earth To bless each childe' at it’s moment of birth
The Lourde’ and his Ladee’ rode swiftly down the road To join leprechauns and pixies in the Forest of Ode’ They must quickly make haste before the night turned around Fire faeries and star babees' danced merrily on the ground
Dream Weavers and Sandmen scurried joyfully thru the woodsCarrying brite coulored' baskets filled with magikal' goods
A woodland wedding for the bride and the groom In the Garden of Ode’ under the stars and the moon. Faerie bride Marina with hair spun of gold Avid the groom so brave... so bold Marina's gown was shimmering, starbrite' white As Avid the brave one stood beside her in the nite'
They all joined together singing jubilant songs of great glee Then the Lourde’ and his Ladee’ rode in with the magik' key
Magik' and musik' echoed thru the nite' air As the Lourde’ and his Ladee’ joined the tiny pair The Magikal' Garden rang oute’ in joyous song As Marina and Avid said their vows to belong
Elves, gnomes, wizards, moon babees' and pixies Water and Earth spirits and a faerie named Trixie
All dancing in the garden where the all wizards dwelled Made of magikal' faerie dust, soft green moss and bluebells
Slowly the twilite' started slipping away As they all sang and danced in joyful play Then all of a sudden... quite out of the blue In a blink of thee eye, away they all flew In the realms of twilite' shimmering across the nite' sky... there was a fluttering of wings... as they all began to fly fly fly |

Hi Anne,
I've joined the group 'To Write For A Child' very recently, and I stumbled across your writing while trying to get the feel of the group and its members. Well, although I'm not habituated with the Olde' English form and have been totally out of touch with classical English literature as well as fairy tales, that didn't hinder the pleasure I could draw from your poem-story. The elements of magic and mysticism have been well-constructed, and so has been the charm of old-world fairy tales with elves, fairies and hidden spirits that abound that woodlands at night. I also loved the way in which the main tale has been preceded and succeeded with introduction/conclusion/words from the poet's own heart. It must not have been easy to write this piece - given its form, length and rhythm. Kudos! Posted 12 Years Ago |
