Connie Kilburn Wonders - Are There Wee People In Fairfax??

Hi, Mr. Raymond: I am a friend of Bev Luman and she sent me this picture that JoAnne took last year. I love to write poetry and the picture prompted the poem below. I hope you enjoy it and I so hope that JoAnne will not be upset that I used her picture and her name in my little poem. Bev sends me a lot of your postings and when you were sick my email went out to over 30 people who prayed for your health to improve. I have to say, Mr. Raymond that you are an inspiration to all.

Are There Little People In Fairfax?

Look what’s been discovered in Fairfax by
JoAnne, expert camera person, extraordinaire,
Who discovered little homes so sweet and so small.
Who knows, there might be little people living there.

Do you think that Fairfax has a family
Do you think it might, do you think it could be?
A family of wee leprechauns visiting there
From that fair isle so far across the sea?

It looks to me that they have decided to stay
In lovely Fairfax to raise up their families.
By building their wee cute little houses
In the green grass and stumps of the trees.

Now remember the stories of these wee ones,
All you in Fairfax, of the rich tales foretold.
That the leprechauns are a might mischievous,
And have lots and lots of pots of gold.

Now if you have it in your mind to catch one;
You’ll have to be a whole lot smarter than he.
First just in the matter of simply catching him,
Then getting him to tell you where that pot might be.

I would simply say here on the whole subject of this,
Is to simply enjoy the picture of the houses there,
In the green grass and stumps of the trees,
Taken by JoAnne, expert camera person, extraordinaire
