Poetry - Janus the Pixie Elf

Perched on a knoll

Janus the pixie elf

Being male and all that

Mused outwardly

And sorrowed inwardly

His face bright to the sun

Smiled with mischief

As the corners of his mouth

Turned up in child-like delight

His face dark to the ground

Wearied under heavy secrets

As his brow crinkled with tears

Inconsolable and indelible

His face turned to the crowd

Beamed with resilience and hope

As his eyes twinkled blue

And his cheeks with wisdom glowed

Tumbling off the knoll

Janus the pixie elf

Being male and all that

Needed the love and care

Of a good woman…me
