An elemental fairie Dancing in the night Shrouded, gleaming, elfish In the pale moonlightNimble, spritely, sharpened nose Dressed in gauze and silver wisps Shimmering head to toe Choreography light and quick
Clustered violets tickling toes Fragrance heady, deep To the wind with caution thrown The mystery in fragrance steep
I am the Wind I breathe of life Sometimes calm with love I send Sometimes betides great fright
Another spoke I am of Fire And danced with flickering madness Into creation, born of flames and feed desire Yet may portend deep pain and sadness
Wending, as frolicking in the wave I am Water, one he said Essential to creation, brave Embrace me too he said
I am a child of Earth it seems Clad in velvet, misty green I am renewal, growth and trees My mortal form is rarely seen
They look into the circle's center Bowed to Spirit there and say You bind us, link our souls as mentor To make the pentacle so it's said
Four elemental fairies Holding hands in meadow charmed Spirit smiles, watches over them Keeps them safe from harm
