Subject(s): Fairies; Fantasy; Fields; Humanity; Supernatural; Elves; Pastures; Meadows; Leas


HE CAME, stepping over the tall grasses (But never a one bent),
He passed as lightly as the wind passes;
I heard him sing as he went.
I called. He dived into the cow-parsley flowers
As into a foamy sea.
I waited there in the meadow for hours and hours...
Why was he afraid of me?
