I met a little girl
walking along an autumn forest
her voice some human some fairy
I said:
I think you are part fairy
she replied: I know I am
walking along an autumn forest
her voice some human some fairy
I said:
I think you are part fairy
she replied: I know I am
bits of her words were entirely human and English
others flew away before I could hear them
it was as though they were carried off by butterfly wings
words laced with music, lyrical

the autumn forest:
