Stray Sod
A Stray Sod: A clump of grass enchanted by faeries. If one steps on it, one becomes lost, even in familiar surroundings. A tried and true method of breaking the spell is to turn your coat inside out.

Tango in the Oak
"The woods are full of faeries! The trees are all alive!
The river overflows with them, See how they dip and dive!
What funny little fellows! What dainty little dears!
They dance and leap, and prance and peep, and utter faerie cheers!"

Midsummer Night
Midsummer Night.. the sky stays bright forever, never seems to get very dark these days. I love the long summer days, the earie glow of the northern horizon at night. It's magical.
The faeries are all out tonight, I feel them out in the meadow, celebrating.
"Oh, the summer night
Has a smile of light
And she sits on a sapphire throne."
