All things are possible in the land of Faerie." Francis Thompson--"Know you what it is to be a child?...It is to believe in love, to believe in loveliness, to believe in belief; it is to be so little that the elves can reach to whisper in your ear, it is to turn pumpkins into coaches, and mice into horses, lowness into loftiness, and nothing into everything, for each child has its fairy godmother in its soul." Tori Amos--"I think that people who can't believe in faeries aren't worth knowing. I just think that alternate realities make you a good writer.

More from the Fairy poems verses quotes collection JUST BEFORE THE MORNING LIGHT. Just before the morning light.Dewdrop Faeries take their flight.Sprinkling Earth with dewdrop honey.Dawn a day that's bright and sunny.
