Sonatas VII-5 (Dolce Capriccioso) The Faerie Dance Sonata

"Love does delight," the faeries say
"Until your love takes love away."
One Faerie stands on a branch on high,
Another to the dark tree doth fly.
With arms outstretched to cast a spell,
"Love not the light tree alone - do tell."
The Faerie spell is cast by two;
Then three, then four, say "I cast with you."
“L” – “O” – “V”' – “E” appears up in the air,
Then Love's not there.
For Love in letters has been cast down,
The broken letters lie on the ground.
The white tree pines, "Oh! how unfair -
Only faeries dancing dot the air.
Silly people see Monet almost anywhere,
I wonder will they chance to hear
Sonatas with a faerie's ear?"
