Did You Ever? : Evaleen Stein

Did You Ever?
Evaleen Stein

"Did you ever see a fairy in a rose-leaf coat and cap
Swinging in a cobweb hammock as he napped his noonday nap?

"Did you ever see one waken very thirsty and drink up
All the honey-dew that glimmered in a golden buttercup?

"Did you ever see one fly away on rainbow-twinkling wings?
If you did not, why, how comes it that you never see such things?"


I think this easily can be read in the voice of a child. It sounds just like my younger sister talking to me. :D
