"My sensibility is a structure of recombinant thoughts, memories, feelings, sensations and words. It syncs concord and discord, trying not to simplify them. It lets gaps and distortions remain."

La Toilette, 1862

THE FAIRYLAND BELLMAN

by Margaret Ely Webb (author and illustrator)

The bee goes home when the shadows creep

Across from the slope of the western hill ;

The cricket is quiet ; the field is still ;

The flushed little daisies are longing for sleep.

Look ! Through the grass comes a firefly light :

‘T is the fairy watchman with his bell,

Crying, “Eight o’ the clock and all is well ;

It is time that the daisies were shut up tight.”

Hark ! Through the fiield goes a sleepy sigh !

Slowly the little white petals close ;

Wee pointed nighcaps, rows upon rows,

Nod as the wind goes whispering by.
