A True Fairy Tale

Once upon a time there was an on-line Women's group that was divided up into many wonderful smaller garden groups. There was a special Garden that resided within the Enchanted Forest Called "The Fae Garden". The little fae would flutter throughout the magickal land of this Women's Group and sprinkle many homes with Fairy Dust and good cheer. The Fae had a very beautiful castle and all of the little fae that did not live inside the castle all lived close to it, in little special homes made of acorns and mushroom caps.

Now the Women's group had decided after so many years on this enchanted land, it was time to sell it and move to other lands. This made everyone very sad, but everyone also understood why it was happening.

The little Fae were very, very sad for many reasons. They did not want to leave their beautiful castle and all of their little special homes. What really made them sad was the fact they knew they would have to venture outside of the Enchanted Land and were a little scared because what if people who lived outside of the Enchanted Forest did not like visits from the Fae? As Fairy Queen Lisa heard all of the little fae crying, she was thinking about what could be done.

Fairy Queen Lisa had some enchanted land that her ancestors had given to her long ago. She had not been to the land in a very long time because she was always so busy doing things for the little fae. It saddened her so to see all of the sadness, so she decided she would do everything she could to make the fae happy again.

Fairy Queen Lisa had called Fairy Princess Rosie and Fairy Maiden Eva (aka: ForestOak) into her chambers to have a meeting. Fairy Queen Lisa looked at the Fairy Princess and the Fairy Maiden and began to tell them her plan. The Queen had explained that her Ancestors had given her a beautiful piece of land in another Enchanted Forest many, many miles away. She continued explaining; we could build another castle and we could have smaller gardens for all of the fae to play, share, learn and have fun in. So the three of them began talking and planning and felt really good because they knew if they pulled their magick together they could accomplish everything and have another beautiful castle once again!!

As the Fairy Queen, Fairy Princess and Fairy Maiden began making plans; they began the journey to the new land and immediately started to build the new Castle. Oh, they were having so much fun, giggling and often throwing fairy dust on each other, and of course the Fairy Queen would make it rain these wonderful chocolate candies. They laughed and they worked very hard to build this castle. The day came and right before their eyes, it appeared, the new castle. The Fairy Queen, Fairy Princess and Fairy Maiden stood before the new castle holding each other's hands. The Fairy Queen spoke with a very soft voice and said, "Our new home and we shall call it: "Seeds of Time-A Fairy's Journey" Seeds of Time

I was born a baby fairy in the garden beneath the roses and lilacs as little fairy sunrise. I am now an older fairy who still enjoys a lot of fun and play. I love art, painting near the pond most days. I enjoy gardening and creatures of almost every type, magical ones like the unicorn and dragons as well human favorites like cats, dogs, birds, and fish. Oh and then the creatures of the forest like butterflies, toads, owls, fawns... oh just all of the forest's creatures!

I so enjoy the Fae, and all the Fae friends I have met over the years. I have a little summer spot that looks over the gardens where I sit and create as I watch Fae play, and often have tea parties with many of the Fae. Oh yes, parties, I so love them; games, tea, and treats. And watch out, some days I can be quite the trickster, this past winter starting a very long snowball fight with sticky flavored snowballs of chocolate and strawberry.

I met the maiden and princess in the Garden of the Fae, and we have such wonderful times; great friends with big hearts! Hugs all, for now! Again watch for those tricks... You just might be next. hehehe

Your Fairy Princess flutters across from the faery realm in the United Kingdom, where she was born many years ago in the time of the Court of King Arthur and his Queen Guinevere. Many tales she could tell of deeds or valour and dark mischiefs too.

She dwelt in the Old Forest where as a fae child was taught the ways of fae and majick. In her second stage fae she joined the Princess of Avalon and spent many years with her sisters in the Forest House learning more skills.

Once she became an Higher fae she left to join our Queens kingdom and become a fae, after a few years of playing in the garden and dusting and spreading joy she was given the honour of Maiden, and moved to the fairy castle.

Here she helped the Queen and Princess and challenged the Fae to many fun games and parties in the garden with her little friend Gnomie, recently she was awarded with the title of Princess.

When the Court moved home to our new Castle a new seed was sown and here we are today Seeds Of TIme -A fairy's Journey.

I am an older fairy who has mainly lived Deep in Forest for many years. Every so often I would venture out and meet many teachers who have taught me many magickal wonderful things throughout the years. My favorite thing in the world; is sitting quietly and listening to Natures song of life and beauty. You see, there truly is Magick in everything if we allow our eyes to see it. My human has always believed in fairies, since early childhood. I suppose since she has always believed in magick, it is only normal for her to also believe that Fairies really do exist.

You will notice my pet Starr. Now she is a special little dragon. Not only is she purple **whispers** she also breathes out Purple Fairy Dust instead of Fire. I only whispered that because Starr is a little self-conscience about it. She and I met during one of my journeys through the forest. I met an older lady who taught me some wonderful magickal things and Starr used to live close to her home. So every morning I would flutter next to Starr and we would watch the sun come up together. We became very close and so she came to live by my home.
