Here's one of mine.. it's been floating around the web a few years now…..

The Gate To The Land Of Faerie
James Browne

original composition
published online, at Faery Poetry

Last night I dreamed that I had seen
The gate to the Land of Faerie
But I held back and entered not
Because I was too wary

I wonder how it could have been
If I had seen that place
To walk among the little folk
And meet them face to face

I could have seen the Faerie Queen,
Her court and all the rest
But just to enter through the gate
I could not pass the test

Next time I'll gather up my strength
And boldly enter in
And once inside I just might stay
And come here not again.


--- The End ---
