Are fairies just a tale, no more?
A poem about fairies in the Rictameter form (any rhyme is purely accidental):

Fairy Tale

Elfin
Lights in the night
Twinkling, blinking, winking
Lead youngsters along magical
Paths of dreamlike, imaginative sights.
The fairies promise much delight
For any who follow
Fantasy called
Elfin.

Pixies
Playing neath trees
Of rainbow colored hues
Laugh in endless tittering joy
When spying a curious girl or boy.
So many no longer believe
That fairies still exist,
Sadness befalls
Pixies.

Fairies'
Ears listen hard
For sound of childish glee
In the spritely land hard to see
Unless the closed eyes open mystically.
Often the fay wait patiently
In vain for anyone
To believe in
Fairies.
