Sunday Picnic amongst the Fae

[poetree_admin]

Sunday, every Sunday, let's have a community picnic. It's probably been a long week, and it's lovely to have a few minutes to sit back and relax and enjoy some good conversation in a less formal space. Feel free to bring something for the Picnic Basket - a poem you liked this week, a thought you had or something you experienced, or even something completely unrelated to poetry whatsoever that you just feel like sharing. Just take a moment to say hello, and maybe have a bite to eat; no one is going anywhere fast, and the shade promises some relief from the everyday heat. Let’s get to know each other a bit better, here under the branches of the poet’s tree.

Fae poems and magic

[alee_grrl]

This weekend I was fortunate enough to spend a day at FaerieCon 2013. It was very fun, and there was much to draw inspiration from. I pretty much used up all my spoons and then some, so I am planting the inspiration so that I may draw upon it later. But I thought it might be fun to have a thread to share some of our favorite magical poems.

An old favorite of mine is Christina Rossetti's Goblin Market What are some of your favorites?
