Teacup Thursday: Bachelor Buttons

-
Fairy babies so sweet and small 
Quite simply hard to see at all 
Asleep on Bachelor Button beds 
Babies Breath pillows at their heads.
An excerpt from A Fairy Poem by Diana Greenwood


Happy Teacup Thursday!

    I would love to tuck my head on a bachelor button bed and sip tea from this very pretty cup. I always love fairy stories and quotes.
