Fairy Fudge

the fairies left a gift for me

outside my bedroom door

a single square of darkest fudge

you won't find in a store

pixie dust like little stars

glinting from its core

it carries whiffs of oak

soaked in a downpour

I take a bite, close my eyes

relish tastes galore

cocoa rivers carry me

to exotic shore

magic bursts through my veins

my feet lift off the floor

wings curl from my shoulders

leaving muscles sore

I shrink down to inches high

needing clothes no more

wrapped only in morning light

out the door I soar
