artsparkThis is a glamour: the bright faerie folk
Have touched a jewelled dewdrop to your eyes
Filling your sight with rainbows. Careful, child:
This is a glamour. This is not the world.
This is a glamour: the unseelie ones
Have touched a raven feather to your eyes
Filling your sight with shadows. Courage, child:
This is a glamour. This is not the world.
