Fairies
February 23, 2009
Soft as a puppy's coat,
A fairy's glow shines.
Smooth as a dress' silk,
A fairy's flight goes.
Swift as a lightning's strike,
A fairy's flight is ended
Famous as a song's singer,
Their story goes on.
Fabled like a dragon's fire,
They will always be there.
Followed like a tornado's path,
They're hunted everywhere.

i don't know why no one comments on here! :( this is reallly good!! :) i love your work!
This gives the traditional and perhaps cliched fairy a unique twist. i love the imagery. good job!
As to getting other people to comment, i read other peoples' poems and left comments - most of them returned the favor. If you just say "plz comment," though, they might not, so first provide constructive criticism or praise and then add something along the lines of: "i'd love if you took a look at my poetry. thanks!" this way, it shows you took the time to look at their poetry. :) hope it helps! :D

Originally, I wrote this for my little sister, but she hated it. I'm glad you like it!
