I wrote this many years ago. It's heavily influenced by a book called The Good Fairies of New York by my most favourite author Martin Millar. I was lucky enough to meet him recently at one of his readings in London and yes he does look like Iggy Pop ;-)
The Healing Good Fairy Poem
When a good fairies heart is broken
She'll fold her wings and bow her head
No bitter words or anger spoken
Her gentle heart she'll mend instead
She'll tumble down and spin a while
And take to drink till darkness fades
But soon she'll find the heart to smile
And dance in light and summer shades
She'll steal the shadows with her smile
And with flaming iris burn
Deep into your soul once more
Keeping darkness from return
