My Fairy

My Fairy

by Rizwan Ahmed Memon

I called her my fairy.

She smiled at me and I felt merry.

I asked her where she had come from.

With her smiling face she replied

From the fairies’ world in the heavens.

I asked her who she had come for.

In soft voice she replied

I was the one she sought.

I inquired her whether she would be with me for good.

She said she had to go back.

I asked why the separation after coming in my life.

I told her it was not right,

She should stay with me on the earth,

Or take me with her to the fairies’ world.

She agreed that she would take me to the fairies’ world.

And would be with me forever.
