"Aoibheall" by Justine G. Cappelli

Introduction

This is my third piece inspired by Justine G. Cappelli's gorgeous artwork.

Some of Justine's words on Aoibheall, there are a lot more on the Facebook link:

Aoibheall is a fairy woman of Munster, closely linked to County Clare, and especially to Craig Liath, often associated with Craglea, near Killaloe. Like many beings of the Aos SΓ­, she is rooted in place.

This is An Ekphrastic Interlocking Rubaiyat

The music is "Si Bheag Si Mhor" by Alisa Marie

From Her Golden Harp Aoibheall Coaxes Notes

Over The Flowers Her Music Does Float

By Her Side, Comfortably Sits Her Cat

Majestic, In His Beautiful White Coat

πŸŽΌπŸˆπŸ‘ΈπŸˆπŸŽΌ

Her Beautiful Hair With Flowery Plaits

Under The Silver Moon , This Day Is Passed

Aoibheall Playing, She Is A Faerie Queen

In The Celtic Otherworld Thoughts Are Mapped

πŸŽΌπŸˆπŸ‘ΈπŸˆπŸŽΌ

Her Music Is Heard, She Cannot Be Seen

By Humans Who Hear Her Magical Tunes

This Eirann Land Is Always In Her Thoughts

Aoibheall, Their Legendary Faerie Queen
