Fairies

We've experienced today in the weather

A migration of little white fairies,

Whose singular mission in winter

Is to banish the brown-ness that wearies.

They powder and polish with vigour.

And the world sparkles white with their numbers!

Piling high (each one on the other!)

Brown-ness gone 'neath the world-cleaning wonders.

But they raise such a heat,

With their small fairy feet,

That the end of the day

Finds them melted away,

And the work waiting there for another.
