THE FAIRY
' Selected > A Fairy went a-riding, A-riding through the air: With butterflies for horses. A tiny golden pair. •v Fairy went a-riding, A-riding to the sky, But never, never got there. And I will tell you why. There were no flowers a-growing, A-growing in the air; There were no little dew-cups. Nor honey sweet up there. And butterflies a-Hying, F?y never very high, They cannot leave the flowers, So never reach the sky. —Sent in by Peter Howes. Rui Street, Tahunanui.
