Mushroom Magic

Small and unassuming, the white mushroom snuggled comfortably at the base of a tree in the yard. Though only three inches high, it loomed much bigger in the imagination, and I just had to get its photo.

Being a big fan of Fairies, my mind conjured tiny eyes peering from behind the ferns, perhaps startled by the large creature that had kneeled down to get a better look. I could even imagine the Pixies giggling, playing and dancing about in the morning mist before my arrival.

Then reality struck firmly as I looked back at the bucket of weeds that I had pulled from the yard. Time to get back to work. The moment had passed but the memory would last, and though the magic may have been all in my mind, the mushroom was the inspiration.
