Today I am presenting another poem that will be appearing in my new book “UntilEyes Hear Sound”. I wrote ‘Faerie Pantomime’ in October 2020, and the poem will be the opening piece in the Faeries Section, ofChapter 9. Humour, Fantasy, Faeries, and Weird.
Faerie Pantomime
Mid-morning and here comes the sun
The Wala* goddess smiles at everyone
Enriching the bloody goodness in our veins
And saturating our skin when the sky rains
Is your blood the same colour as mine?
Does your skin drip-dry under the same sunshine?
Are your dreams moonbeam snippets of time?
Do you imagine the world to be a faerie’s pantomime?
And we the audience, laugh at their mystical rhymes
Together dancing and ringing the city’s peace chimes

Hello, dear readers and followers, as you might know I stopped producing my “Tullawalla Booklets” at # 31, because that was the house number of our family’s Tullawalla Homestead. But the booklet formats are a superb way for me to catalogue the vast number of poems that I produce and as the saying goes “I Am Turning Another Page”. Here I have begun a new series of poem booklets, and they are called “Shangri La” which is the name of my little Villa, and is my piece of “earthly paradise, a retreat from the pressures of modern civilization”. Incredibily, I now have a total of “1502” Poems filed in these booklet formats!! Click on >> Here for the link to your FREE: PDF Copy of “Shangri La, Volume 3. Below the Trees and Bushes“.
