I do not go into the fairy light
To find pretty lithe night wisps

No rare beauty do I long to kiss

In the vocabulary of the elders was a fable used to frighten us into not entering the forest. Barren branches, gnarly trees, the witch’s cottage, all words which filled us with fear. One day the "witch" beckoned me and showed me the beauty in truth.

gazing into the night
generous stars alight
overflowed bright
no afterthought for twilight
