Solstice the Summer Fairy
Solstice, the summertime fairy wakes upon a golden crest her skin warm honey, eyes ablaze with embers that glow from the west 🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️ She steps through valleys baked in light California poppies flood the steep her voice the surf on coastal rocks that rouses summer from its sleep 🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️ She wears a dress of sun and sand and paints the hills with trees for shade her hands lift in the open skies so, summers glare won't quickly fade 🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️ She spins across the coastal fog and burns away the morning chill her footprints leave a trail of heat that lingers on the quiet hill 🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️ She shakes out stars from twilight skies and hangs the moon like a lemon slice she fills the long and hazy nights with ocean air and summer spice 🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️ Though delicate spring blooms once stood now vibrant poppies crown the glade as Solstice weaves her endless light and drapes the world in lemonade
