In life, there are things we never expect to see <br />and a very large hairy fairy <br />with Pancho Villa moustache is one of them. <br />This one flew into my garden and squashed all my roses <br />on his bad landing on that fateful day. <br />Every time he waved his supposedly magic wand, <br />everything went bottom up. <br />The roses he tried to mend <br />had their flowers in the ground <br />and their roots pointing skyward in the air. <br />It got that bad I had to replant everyone. <br />I shuddered to think what other magic <br />he might have up his sleeve. <br />The big hairy fairy dressed in a short Toto <br />spread out his wings to say goodbye and fly away. <br />He never got no more than three feet off the ground <br />before he again came crashing down <br />squashing all my tulips this time. <br />Enough is enough you’re ruining garden. <br />Do you realise all the hard work I have put in. <br />The hairy fairy looked at me <br />and then started to cry. <br />No body loves me, even the fairies kicked me out <br />because I am different from them. <br />Being a soft heated fool I am <br />I invited him in for a cup of tea, <br />but everything he sat on broke <br />and now I was stuck with <br />a ten ton hairy fairy as a house guest. <br />As time went on my replacement, furniture <br />was costing me a packet. <br />Then one day I woke up and the big hairy fairy was gone, <br />now I kinda miss him. <br />However, saying that <br />I can start to rebuild what was my happy home again <br />and hope with luck that big hairy fairy does not come back again. <br />Then in my garden, <br />I heard an almighty thump <br />and looked out the window. <br />In my agony I moaned, <br />Oh no. He is back again.<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-hairy-fairy/
