A Fairy Ring

mush3It has been years since I have seen one of these…an almost perfect fairy ring! To my neighbors’ delight, this ring of toadstools sprouted in their garden…evidence that fairies were dancing in a magical circle on their lawn last night! Did I happen to witness the moonlight ball? Sadly, no. I was a sleepyhead and missed the festivities!

IMG_7603I am waiting, dear little fairies! Please hurry back and visit my garden tonight!

  3. I remember when you shared a fairy ring that you woke up to a few years ago. Magical. They must love your garden! No fairy ring here, but they did leave a tiny little forrest on my door mat last week. ;-)

  7. Oh, yes, I do BELIEVE. In Houston, Tx a few weeks ago, we got a lot of rain...around the corner from my house was a perfect Fairy Ring...as I drove by I made comment to myself "there was a grand party by the Fairies last night" - we had a lot of very big mushrooms in our back yard but not a Fairy Ring. Thanks for sharing this delightful piece.

  9. My gosh- I have not seen a fairy ring in years and years and years! I think with all the lawn sprays,etc, today that they have virtually disappeared in most places. That is some magic your neighbors are working there- xo Diana

  11. That is so neat! I've often heard and read about fairy rings, but never have seen one. If you see them, shoosh them over to my house. I'd love to have them dance in my yard.

  16. Debbie,
    I could almost hear their little flutes as they swayed and twirled amongst the dew drops of the grass! This is precious!
    Fondly,
