Steemit Monthly Author Challenge #5-2019 - Day 11 || Flower Fairies
#Monthlyauthorchallenge initiated by @steemit-mac
Browsing the web in search of funny stuff (and not only) about flowers, I came across an interesting page. And this website is all about flowers and their fairies.
Performing a more in depth research, I found out about Cicely Mary Barker, a British illlustrator best known for her work related to fantasy, flowers and fairies.
The website I was previously talking about, lists all of Barker's illustrations of flowers and their fairies. Although her work is dedicated to children, I urge you to check it. I personally love her drawings and little poems. 🙂
Today, I present you The Forget-Me-Not Fairy (Cicely's lyrics and my photo):
So small, so blue, in grassy places
My flowers raise
Their tiny faces.
By streams my bigger sisters grow,
And smile in gardens,
In a row.
I’ve never seen a garden plot;
But though I’m small
Forget me not!
Check out the challenge started by me and @erikah, SeasonChallenge. We would love to learn about your impressions towards the Spring (these being the theme until 3rd of June).
