Crimsons Creative Challenge #279 #Tourney at the magic cottage

O’er hill and dale, from forests green

came fairies , denizens of dreams

for as was the custom in this land

a trial was set to claim the hand

of the fair and beautiful Trixie,

daughter of the King of pixies

From northern lands came Knghts and Lords,

all were armed with lance or sword

warrior magicians, heroes, clerics,

and dark skinned Sheikhs and mystics

their swords and scimitars made of gold

eager to claim this prize foretold

in legends and their country’s fables

discussed at length o’er dining tables

in an enchanted forest this cottage stands

invisible to any mortal man

but if somehow this house be seen

t’would appear nought but a dream
