Fairies' power is its strongest, <br />When the day is at its longest, <br />Around the flames of a bonfire, <br />The night's magic will transpire, <br />Our thanks gets given to the sun, <br />Before long summer will be done, <br />Long summer days we will soon miss, <br />The sunlight ebbs past the solstice, <br />Once the sun appears in the East, <br />It's time to ready for a feast, <br />Stay out long into the evening, <br />There's festivities and dancing, <br />Spent within the warm evening air, <br />There are smiles to share everywhere, <br />It's light close to the midnight hour, <br />Into the night the evening blurs.<br /><br />Christian Lacdael<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/midsummer-s-day/
