Pixelated Poem by David Harris

Twas once upon a midnight spring
in the days when daffodils did sing,
a flaxen haired girl went down to the stream
to listen to the water’s lullaby
where upon she happened to see
the ascending heavenly staircase
reaching up above the clouds
and on each step a cherub sang
songs of love and romantic things.
While on the earth in a sleepy hollow
where the moonbeams danced upon the ground
with the Pixies and the Fairies within a large Fairy ring
she saw the most amazing thing,
a vision of the Knight she would one day marry
astride his white charger with it armour
glinting in the moonlight
and so it came to be in that long ago
the flaxen haired beauty
had her dreams come true.
There upon a midnight spring
when the daffodils did sing
and the cherubs sang of love
above a sleepy hollow.
