long ago and far away

                              LONG AGO AND FAR AWAY 

Long ago and far away

I watched a fairy grow day by day

Crimped hair she had her own

With a pure heart she used to own

She lived near a ness,

Where grew watercress

With a mellifluous voice she used to sing

but never demand a meritorious feed

she gained her powers from perennial trees

which were now being ephemeral seize

o! that poor fairy being unbriefed to this greedy world

where people being pleased by the forlorn of other beings

greedy men used to come and cut the trees one by one

time flew day by day and tress vanished by brae

now o! that poor fairy lost all her dynamism

and got struck in a prism

 

she lost her mellifluous voice

her wings were awol

and she was getting maul

on her last judgement day

she took a breath and pledged

not to come in this greedy world again

and with the unfledged body

she lie down on the edge and,

 again  took a  breath

but o! this time the last breath

so, long ago and far away

I watched a fairy grow day by day
