Spring Magic
The World is very old
But year by year
It groweth new again
When bud appear
The World is very old;
And sometimes sad;
But when the daisies come
The World is glad.
The World is very old;
But every Spring
It groweth young again,
And fairies sing.
Cicely Mary Barker

I do collect old Cigarette cases I use them for storing different things. When I found this one I gave it to my friend to add to her collection. I'm afraid the picture is not that great but I wanted to add it so I did.

I am seeing a lot of fairy gardens in different posts - either in containers or against sheltered tree bases. A delightful group of fairy themed books.
ReplyDeleteI have some of the fairies in my garden from the Cicely Mary Barker series. I've not read the the books but I am intrigued! Your cigarette case is pretty neat.

What a sweet poem. Spring is my favorite season and it's all because of the renewal of things. It always amazes me how the earth becomes so beautiful after being covered with snow here in UT. I have a fairy garden I made in an old wheelbarrow. The grandies love it. The books look so sweet. Is that a cute fairy on the case? Thanks for sharing with Share Your Cup.
