Sprites like Wes relish the limerick though their enemies claim 5 lines is all that the average sprite could pay attention to. Naturally the ruder the limerick the more popular it is amongst the pixies and imps. As on Earth, public walls are often daubed with limericks. The more artistic sprite illustrates their work with cartoons as well though the Queen does not approve. She links both the verse and the graphic lower the tone. She is right. They do. It doesn't stop them being popular though!
Poetry is highly respected throughout the magical realm and all of the species enjoy some form of it. Unsurprisingly the Queen, members of her Council like L'Evallier and Brankaresh enjoy the "higher" forms or what Wes describes as "ballads that go on for too long and are full of gloom and doom". The response to that from the art critics goes on at some length, uses vocabulary no posh being is supposed to know, yet alone use, but the gist is that they think Wes has got it wrong!

AuthorI'm Allison Symes and I write novels, short stories as well as some scripts and poems. I love setting my work in my magical world, the Fairy Kingdom, and my favourite character is Eileen, who believes hypocrisy is something that happens to other people without caring that statement is hypocritical in itself! Eileen is huge fun to write for and about. Archives
