Gwragedd Annwn



Copyright 2000, Michelle Iacona



Cloaked in white, Gwragedd Annwn am I-- 
A faery maid, speaking words tongued by fire. 
Tylwyeth Teg-born child of light and sighs, 
Late of woodland, wave, and hidden briar; 
I slip within and steal away the fair. 
Beautiful white-haired child of grace and song, 
Remember mother's whispers: "Boy, beware!" 
Or to Faerieland steal with me, ere long! 
Dance with me lightly, as if it were spring; 
Wipe the sadness from thy face, ashen pale-- 
Exchange it for music and faerie ring. 
For though I may seek to steal thee away, 
'Tis only to bring thee some joy this day."
