Faeries are kisses that escaped

Wandering by the water near the glen I heard a small voice say, "Good Morning."  I turned and saw a beautiful faerie sitting and by her side was a multicolored butterfly. She was smiling at me and I sat down on a big rock that was right by her side.

I asked her if she had a special job like the other faeries had that lived in my glen and she smiled again and said that her job was one of the best ones because she got to catch all the escaped kisses.

I didn't understand her meaning and she saw the puzzled look on my face and started to giggle.

she said,"Sometimes when people are all alone and thinking of a loved one that they miss terribly they  will make a wish that they could see them and kiss and hug them." "These could be kisses from some one that has moved or they haven't seen for awhile, and they will blow them a kiss." "It is my job to collect all these kisses and take them to the people that they were meant for and put the suggestion in their minds who that kiss was from." "Have you ever done this?" "Thought of someone and wished that you could kiss them or hug them but they are too far away for you to do this, and the next moment they will call , or drop in to see you?"  "This is because I have delivered that kiss and hug and made them think of you and your love for them."

I sat there as this beautiful smiling faerie gently stroked the butterflies wings and thought what a wonderful job that had to be. To go from place to place delivering kisses and hugs to all the lonely people and getting them to think of each other. We as humans miss so much that these faeries are able to do with all their heart and love.

I must remember to call my mom and tell her how much I miss her and send her a faerie kiss and hug too.

I smiled and said goodbye and left the faerie singing softly as I walked out of the glen to my home.

Faerie of Wisdom and forgiveness

While strolling in the glen I came upon a faerie that was sitting down with a big book in her lap and she was writing and reading and nodding her head from time to time. Once in awhile she would smile and at other times it seemed that she had a tear in her eye. I was so quiet that she didn't notice me as she was working so hard with her book. It had to be twice the size of her and I wondered how she carried it, but being a faerie I bet she didn't have any problems at all.

I just stood there and looked at this beautiful faerie and she had a wand with a star on the end of it. When she touched the inside of the book with it, a bright light shone and little stars sparkled out and landed inside. I looked over her shoulder and saw that the book was full of names and some had these sparkling stars by them and others didn't.

I moved in front of her so that she would not be afraid because I knew she didn't see me. She looked up and told me that she had sensed my presence long before I stood behind her, so she knew I was there and who I was and therefore not afraid .

I asked her if she would tell me what she was doing with that big book and why at times she smiled and other times she had a tear in her eye. What was the wand doing too, I asked.

"I am the faerie of Wisdom and Forgiveness,"She said.  "I have everyone that has not forgiven someone that they have wronged in this book and I try to use my wisdom and age, for I have been here for many many of your earth years, so I have alot of wisdom that I can share with all of you." "You see," She said. "You humans hurt each other and don't know how to make amends for the wrongs you have done to others." "I try to whisper to these people and help them realize that their lives are way to short to hold a grudge against someone they really love and not share their lives with them." "Many times it is over a foolish thing or a complete misunderstanding. Often times it is from gossip that they have heard from a third party." "These are the saddest, because to believe what someone else says in gossip is wrong and sometimes these people are deliberately hoping to cause trouble and break up a friendship." "Have you ever noticed that the ones that gossip the most are the unhappiest people on earth?" "They are so consumed with unhappiness that they can't seem to want anyone else to be happy either, sothey start false rumors and lie about what one person said about another." "I have a tear in my eye when I realize that no matter how much I try to help them, they will never change." "But then on the other hand , there are those that I am able to reach and make understand that a friend is worth more than anything on this earth. NO money, no accomplishment can replace a true friend." "One that will always be there no matter what happens and no matter what anyone says or does they will stand fast." "These are true friend, that are made of gold and last for your lifetime." "You will meet many friends during your life, but only a few gold ones. "

How wise this faerie was and she explained that when she reached two people and they renewed their friendship, they glowed red in her book and then she touched their names with her wand and the red turned to gold, for then they were friend of gold for life. I listened to her talk and tell me her stories as she touched certain names in that book and others I noticed were a black color and these made her have a tear. Thank goodness that the gold ones outnumbered the black ones. I would hate to see this beautiful faerie full of saddness and cry. When she was done, she lifted her magic wand and waved it over the book and it disappeared. That is how she "carried" her book, I  had to smile.  How lovely she was in her gown on emerald green and trimmed in black, and I noticed that she had a black ribbon around her waist and it had a silver medallion tied to it. I was staring at it and she smiled and told me that it was an intricate endless knotting that hallmarks the artistry of the Celtic Relm--demostrated in the eternity--symbolizing there is no end. This is how freindship should be she said, for it is as precious as diamonds and worth more than pearls.

I thought it was beautiful and I had never seen anything like it before. She told me that many people from her land wore these as rings and many gave them as wedding bands too. How wonderful they would look , I really admired that medallion . She smiled and said that I could buy a ring in almost any jewerly store. I liked hearing that and said that I was going to look for it the first chance I got.

I wished her a good day and I walked back to the house thinking about this faeries wonderful words of wisdom, and thinking if I had hurt anyone unjustly and if I did, I was going to make sure that I made amends, because friendship is to precious to let go.

 

Faerie of Comfort

I had just come home from a very sad day spent with a family that had lost someone very dear to them and to me also. This person had been a friend of mine for many many years. We had gone through all the trials and tribulations and laughed and smiled and hugged over many happy events in our lives. I sadly sat down on my porch and sighed as I rocked back and forth in my rocking chair. Thinking back to all the times I meant to call her and say Hello but there always seemed to be something to do or somewhere to go. So now, I can not do this any more. I missed my chance.,

As I sat there daydreaming of my dear friend, a very gentle breeze touched my cheek and I heard a small little voice whispering in my ear. I turned my head slightly and there hovering just above my shoulder was a beautiful faerie. She looked so sad and she gently landed on my shoulder and put her small hands on my face and wiped away the tears that were falling from my eyes. As she touched each tear and held it in her small hand it turned into a pretty small bird with a tiny white flower in its beak  and she lifted her hand and let it fly up into the sky. She did this with each tear that she took as I sat and quietly cried and watched her. I was too sad to speak and  she seemed to understand this.

She gently talked to me and said that every tear that I shed for my dear friend was now on its way to heaven to show that person that I loved her very much and instead of tears, my friend would get these pretty flowers brought to her by these very special birds that only she could send. She said that my friend would smile and take each flower and make a bouquet out of them and smell their pretty fragance and be happy that someone loved her so much to send these to her. Each flower was special because there were none like them on earth. They glittered and glowed a soft yellow-pink color and smelled heavenly.

I asked her who she was and how she knew that I was so sad about my lost friend.

"I am the faerie of comfort,'She said. "I am sent out  by the Faerie Princess when ever anyone truly loves someone and they are so sad that their hearts and souls are full of tears. I send those tears to their loved ones and let them know that they  are remembered and loved and missed. I do this for all people and there are many of us that do this every minute every day. By sending these flowers and changing your tears to birds that can spread their wings and go up to heaven will help ease your pain as each time a tear is changed a small spark of comfort enters your heart and soul . It will not take all the pain away from losing the one you love, but it will help you to be comforted that they are with the Lord and are happy in His care. "

I just sat and saddly looked at this wonder sent to me to comfort my grief. She was so lovely and her voice was so soft and loving. She had clear wings that moved slowly back and forth as she talked to me and in a way they were comforting to watch. Her gown was of lavendar and white and she had a pink shawl on her shoulders. Lovely red hair flowing down to her waist with ringlets of curls circling her gentle oval face . She had soft green eyes and dark lashes that made them even more attractive. Her eyes seemed to glisten and shine as we talked and I began to feel a peace come over me. She stayed with me for the whole time I sat on that porch and I told her all about my dear friend that I will miss so badly. I can only think that the Faerie Princess and God work together on occassions such as these. I can only thank both of them of this angel of a faerie whos job was comforting aching hearts.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The MOON FAERIE

Have you ever looked up into the sky and seen the moon faerie sitting on the moon and just playing her harp and singing sweet songs? Maybe you can't see this faerie because you have to be in my glen where all the faeries live. I have just noticed her there today as I was sitting on my porch and looking up and the sky. She seemed to be so beautiful and there were irredesent lights surrounding her as she sat and swung her leg back and forth and sang her lovely song.  I sat mesmerized and she kept  swinging her leg and singing and playing that harp. After what had seemed a very long time, she left that moon and it seemed that she was like a streak of multicolored lights going through the sky. She landed on the porch by my railing and took me by surprise, because I didn't think that she saw me there and watching her.

How lovely she looked. She had on a long multicolored gown and it was shiny and silky. It seemed to flow in the wind as she quietly walked up to me and sat on my outstretched hand. I told her how happy I was that she decided to stop in and say hello to me.

She said that she had seen me sitting and listening to her singing and that she could here me huming the words with her nad wondered how I had learned that song as it was an old Irish one and no body sang it anymore. I had to confess that I had listened and learned it from her and I didn't even realize that I was humming the same tune as she was singing.  She just smiled and said that  she was happy that she was able to share that song with me. 

She said that she was on vacation and that she chose just to stay in the glen and sing and play her harp and not hurry off somewhere when she was very happy here. That is why she decided to streak to the moon and sit there and sing and play tonight.

How wonderful that would be to be able to just streak to the moon and sit and swing your foot and play a harp and sing.  I closed my eyes as she started to play and sing another song for me. I began taping my foot to the music. We stayed there for quite awhile and just relaxed and talked and sang songs that I knew and taught her and she taught me a few of hers.

What a wonderful ending to a tiring day at work. It was nice and cool out side and just sitting there with my faerie friend was the best thing to happen to me in a long time.

Faerie of the Stareyed lovers

I was sitting on the rocker on my porch and I happened to glance up into the sky. I noticed that their were some very unusual stars out tonight. They were not shaped like the ordinary ones, they were brighter and more stretched out as if to draw attention to themselves more. I sat there deep in thought and wondered about all the lovers looking at these beautiful stars and holding each other.

"Ahh, Lass, you have noticed my lovely starey stars shinning out tonight."

I looked around to see who had said that and I noticed a bright light and in the middle of that light was a beautiful lavendar winged faerie. She had such beautiful long brown wavey hair that was down to her waist. She smiled at me and came to rest on my rocker arm and she had starlite surrounding her. I couldn't take my eyes off of her. She looked more beautiful than any star I have ever seen. She stood in the middle and lights streamed out on four sides of her as if a star was stretched out so she could be in the middle.

"I am the faerie of lovers she said softly." "I see them walking on the beach or sitting on a porch any where I can find them, and I send these special stars into the skies for them to wish and dream on." She said. "These are very special stars, you see, if you wish upon one of these stars that I send your wishes will come true." "I make them bright and stretch them out so that they glitter and shine so bright that they can't help but notice them and I whisper in their ears to make a silent wish of love." "You would be surprised how unselfishly they wish,"She said. Some of them wish for their mates to be happy and healthy and others wish for long life and love for their mates." " I have never heard anyone of them wish for anything for themselves, it is always for the one that they love."

I sat their and listened to this small wonderful gift from heaven as she explained her job to me. She was so happy and excited to be able to perform this simple task for lovers. How would it feel I wondered to have a job like that. To simply provide bright shiny stars for lovers to wish upon.

She seemed to sense my wish and asked me to wish upon a star for myself. I told her I didn't see any like she discribed up there. She reached in her small pocket and a small light was inside of her tiny hand. She extended it up and the small light lifted up rapidly into the sky and as it did so it became bigger and bigger until I had  to sheild my eyes from its brightness. It kept rising until it was up with the other stars, but much bigger and brighter and stretched out so far it took up the space of three of the others.

"Go ahead,"she said, "Make a wish on that star and I will do my best to make it come true for you."

I thought for a long time and I could only come up with one wish and I hoped that it would come true. I sat up and leaned forward and whispered, "Star lite, Star bright, First star I see this night, I wish I might have this wish that I wish tonight." I closed my eyes and held them tightly closed as I made my wish.

When I opened my eyes, she was gone and in her place was a bouguet of flowers that smelled heavenly and my star was shiny brighter and brighter it started to move and streaked across the sky and i could see its tail as it sailed away a smile came across my face because I knew that the faerie would give me my wish.

I sat back and rocked and rocked and thought that if that faerie was able to give me my wish I would be a very happy woman indeed. That handsome young garage mechanic that took care of my car for all these months would finally notice me and not just talk to me from under a car as he usually did.  Oh!! I can't wait to see if this one comes true for me . I know she said that lovers wished for others but I didn't have a lover so I felt it was ok to wish for myself and who knows, maybe if I saw one of those great stars again and I had a lover, I could make another wish . You can never tell can you?  What a warm and lovely night. I can smell all the flowers in the glen as the wind sends whiffs of their fragrance toward my home. Wonderful, I love this home and glen. Just love it here.

 

 

Sisters of the butterflies

I was standing on my patio and I noticed that there were so many butterflies coming from all over. I smiled at them as they danced around my head and body and I was very carefull not to hurt anyone of them. They seemed to be asking me to follow them because they would come very close and then move away and then return again as if to say come this way. I smiled and stepped off of the porch and followed them into the glen.

there sitting on the ground and surrounded by many thousands of butterflies were two faeries and two smaller faeries too. They seemed to be holding these butterflies and letting them go. They all were landing on these faeries hands and as they lifted to go their colors were magnificent. Each butterfly was given a different design and color of its very own. How amazing that this could be done. As I watched the butterflies were all the same color landing on the faeries hands and yet when they left they were all the beautiful colors of the rainbow.

The sister faries noticed me and bid me welcome and to come closer. I did and they explained that all butterflies were the same color at birth and it was there job to make sure each got their own colors. Each butterfly got to pick his or her own design and some were very beautiful. How imaginative they could be. A few wanted to be the same color and that was ok too.

This glen and these faeries never cease to amaze me. There is always some wonderful and amazing thing going on in here. Who would have ever thought that such a small glen would be the home of such wonderous creatures and such beautiful faeries of love. For not one of them had any thing but love in their hearts and they made you awarre of their love when they spoke to you and by what they did for all of us to enjoy.

I left with a halo of butterflies surrounding my head and the small sound of their wings magnified because of their numbers sounded like the tinkling of tiny bells. So if you are ever in a glen and you hear a slight sound of tinkling bells , think of all these butterflies fluttering around and it will make you smile as it did me.

Mystical Faerie

I had hoped to run into the Faerie Princess today , but she didn't seem to be around and when I asked a few faeries that were doing there work, they said that she hadn't come back yet from the other glen.

I noticed an exceptionally beautiful faerie with the most wonderful wings I have ever seen. They were all different colors, but the amazing things was that they changed from one color to the other as you watched. They were so delicate and fragile looking. 

I approached this faerie and told her who I was and asked her what her name was and what kind of work did she do.

She smiled and said that her name was Mystical faerie and that she had seen me many times because she could hear me wishing for different things and she was the one that made those wishes come true, if they were good wishes. I asked her why her wings were changing colors all the time and she replied that as she picked up senses from people their moods were reflected in her wings. If they were sad her wings turned almost a deep purple and if they were happy they turned into a rainbow. If they were ill , her wings turned green and if they had troubles her wings turned a grayish color. Happiness was a radiant blue and joy was yellow and blue mixed together. She said that they helped her decide who she should go to first. She said that she always went to the ones that felt lost and alone first. They were the ones in need the most of a friend and she would go and spread her faerie dust on them and wave her magical wand and help them with  what ever it was that was distressing them so much. Sometimes, she said, no matter what she did, it didn't help but that she always tried. Sometimes it was a persons destiny to have things happen to them and she had no control of peoples destinies. She could only help out just so much. 

I thanked her for her explanations and watched as she stood up and her wings changed into a deep purple and she looked sad as she flew away. On her way to do all she could to help someone in need.
