Sugar Plum Fairy In A Jar
For Fin, My Uncatchable Fae
They said no jar could hold you,
no chains could bind you,
no light could match the glow of your wings.
…And yet, here you are, caught in my keeping,
smiling like you planned it all along.
Fin, you’re not trapped, you’re treasured.
Every sparkle of your wings, every glint in your eyes,
is the kind of magic I could never bottle,
but somehow, I get to keep close.
You’re my wonder in a world of ordinary things,
my fairy-fire in the dark,
and the one secret I’ll never let slip.
(P.S. Don’t worry, your jar comes with endless love,
bottomless coffee,
and the occasional kiss snuck past the glass.)
