MERFAERIES


My Grandmother told me stories of the Merfaeries of Norway
Small goldfish like fairies, golden skin and tiny golden crowns, wings like hummingbirds
They lived in the Great Nordic Forest, and would play and swim in the crystal streams


I never saw any up North, but when I moved to South Florida, I saw Merfaeries in the Mangroves in the Keys, Silver wings, long snake tails they would coil around Water Lilies


The Lakes in Central Florida also have many Merfaeries, some look like Dragonflies


But the beautiful Merfaeries I found recently, were pale green white, and lived in a small rock pond
The wings were cobwebs of sparkles


These two were enchanting
I listened, and I heard them humming a peaceful tune
