On the Wings of Spring




With glee, with glee, we goblin gnomes
Are leaving moss and mountain homes.
With little hammers bright
We work with all our might
To free the Flower Queen.

From deepest earth to light and air
We make way for the lady fair.
With little hammers bright
We work with all our might
To free the Flower Queen.

Our hammers work ding dong, ding dong,
We dig and dig with axes strong.
The hard earth breaks away
And happily this day
We greet the Flower Queen.

(From "Spring: Poems, Songs and Stories" by Wynstones Press)




The Flower Queen has been freed by gnome.
She greets you on this Spring Day with the gift of a magical baby bird.
Won't you welcome him to your home?
Love is sure to fill the space where he is flown.




Thanks to a fun filled day, sharing a picnic with friends, a worn out baby,

Enabled me to complete these:

For a Spring Craft Exchange hosted byWe Bloom Here the theme was birds.  This is my very first craft exchange, I had a lot of fun crafting these spring maidens and weaving a story to include the birds, I hope my swap partners enjoy them as well.
