The Fairy Door

Poetry by PerditusNovember 18, 2020November 18, 2020

As I walked into the room

I’m sure I saw the door close

Or did I imagine it

as I stumbled around in a doze

🌑

So small it’s not noticed

that little door

Hidden on the skirting board

close to the floor

🌑

At night

when we are all asleep

the door opens ajar

and little faces take a peep

🌑

When all is quiet

our friends come out to play

singing and dancing

until the start of a new day

🌑

As we wake

they creep back through the door

Sometimes we get the briefest glimpse

of our mysterious friends from lore
