“Briar! Where are you Briar?! We must go before we are caught!”

“Shh Fen! We won’t get caught if you are quiet!”

Fen saw  Briar shimmer in the sunlight. She was a beautiful fairy but Fen knew they would have to face the fairy council if they were caught.

“I just want to see a human Fen, I have never seen a human before.” Briar pouted and her purple eyes shone with excitement.

Suddenly Fen saw something and shouted to Briar, “Look out!”

Moments later Fen looked at a terrified Briar, “That was close!”

“That stupid human almost stepped on me!”

I enjoy reading, writing, and painting. I love animals and at present have one dog (Sam) and 2 cats (brother and sister, Notwen and Pouncer). I've lived in various places in the USA and now in Canada. I've always enjoyed watching life and people and have developed an appreciation for it all. My outlook is sometimes out of the normal.... but that's what makes things so interesting! I am always interested in the opinions of others. Everyone has their own outlook and it's always worthwhile to listen! http://tobreatheistowrite.com

  3. Sounds like there’s a good reason the fairy council doesn’t like them wandering around looking for those big clod-hopping humans!

  8. Your story just made me realize that I never look out for fairies while out walking. Are they only in the woods? I hope so. Right now, all I have to watch for is goose poop and that’s enough work.

  17. Dear Jackie,

    This is the kind of fairy story I enjoyed as a child. Another world within a world. Briar had to be beautiful with purple eyes. Sweet, funny and cute. Love it.

    Shalom,

  20. briar wanted to see a human, and it was almost the last thing he saw. guess we could say “be careful what you wish for.” that’s for the purple-eyed treat.
