Cold and damp, fog comes creeping,
Blanketing the harbor beneath a shroud of grey.
Silently eerie, shadows veil the fae.
Wee folk dance mortals into a frenzy,
Faster and faster, a delirious ballet.
Spinning, twirling, the world falls away.
Light and sound reason betrays.

This is delightful. I love the ideas of fairies twirling and dancing within dense fog. Love the line: “wee folk dance mortals into a frenzy.” Thanks for joining us at dVerse, Tara.

This is so mysterious and slightly creepy ~ The ending line is very subtle yet darkly menacing ~

Love your use of rhyme here. It adds to the lyrical quality of the dance.

I’m reminded of the swirling fog being fairies… There was a painting that I recall from my childhood…

I have never seen that painting, but it’s exactly as I imagine a fairy circle would be. The fog was so thick that morning, that the ends of the bridge looked like they simply disappeared. Driving over it was… tricky.
