'Fae' Prompts

the gift of the dawn the eloquence of silence the window on the heart of coffee mugs and monks

the gift of clouds the laughing tree the gift of the garden the turning of the day a path in the wood

the gift of the echo a neighbor and a friend the gift of the blue moment why birds fly the glove

the gift of family a ceremony of the ordinary corners the dark gift

the distant shore the closing of the day
