Faeries, come take me out of this dull world,
For I would ride with you upon the wind,
Run on the top of the disheveled tide,
And dance upon the mountains like a flame.
~William Butler Yeats, “The Land of Heart’s Desire,” 1894
Artistic people and fairies have a common bond for is it not in our imaginations we travel to far off places? We paint or write words to help others see a reality that is very real to us. When creating do you not become one with what it is you create even for a moment? Then to release it into a world where people can only glimpse why it is there for them to read or gaze upon. In my imagination a can be very small and fly on top the wings of birds or transport myself to a mystical place where everything is magical.
