A carpet of sun-green sprites
fill the streets of their impish crystalline city.
The cloud drenched heathcliff world
puts no damper on their pixie jubilee.
Near, the dark of unseen nights
swallows branch and stone in slithering emnity.
Wicked tendrils unfurled
to strangle the faerie glow that will not flee
Live on! Outshine these blights
whose lust and envy but mar your simplicity.
Stay bright and free, not squirr'ld
away in fear of darkness that chose not to be
