The Rescue of Fairy Queen Maeve

High on an Oak tree one morning in June

A fairy queen sat and played a fine tune.

As she plucked on her harp strings an old Irish air

Her sweet lilting music was heard everywhere.

Today was a day that she yearned to be free.

Far away from her kingdom she wished she could be.

Sometimes being queen, her patience was tested.

But after playing her harp she always felt rested.

 

Unbeknownst to the queen hiding right down below

Was a creature in black with a face white as snow.

The creature was wearing a smile ear to ear

And the thoughts it was thinking were far from sincere.

 

Before the queen knew it that Banshee appeared

And spread her black cloak and they both disappeared.

The queen was then taken to cliffs by the sea

And kept in a cave with the howling banshee.

 

An hour or two passed till a search had begun.

The fairies looked everywhere under the sun.

They tried to imagine just where she would go

No queen could they find, though they looked high and low.

 

The queen had been put deep into a trance

To endlessly play for the Banshee’s wild dance.

She strummed on her harp through that entire morn

While her fingertips blistered and bleeding were torn.

 

The Banshee joined in with a horrible scream

And the poor fairy wished she could wake from her dream.

But she didn’t know then that back at the fort

The fairies had all gathered round to hold court.

 

They agreed on a plan they knew what to do

They’d send for the leprechauns Owen and Hugh!

The duo were famous throughout fairyland

For their trickery deeds were greater than grand.

 

They soon headed out to look for the queen

And first started searching the place where she’d been.

Which everyone knew was the Royal Oak tree

They hoped for a clue as to where she might be.
