Dream Fairies
The darkness waits for those sleep,
The dreams of all the Fairies keep
In slender hands held close to heart-
Waiting for the night to start;
Their glistening wings of blue and gold
Do not appear when day is bold-
They sleep away in night's bright stars
Enraptured in the coolest fires:
Slumbering there 'til twilight falls
Awaken there to dreamers' calls.
