One day two fairy sisters took a wander through their local woods and sat down upon a fine carpet of pine needles and fallen leaves.
"This is a magical place sister" said the youngest of the two sisters,"it is indeed" said the elder sister.
After breathing in the beautiful clean fresh woodland air, the eldest sister said "We should treasure this special place", "oh yes" replied her sibling "Not only should we treasure here sister dear, we should hide our treasures here and ourselves take on the appearance of these glorious tree's overlooking our treasures"
A smile spread across the youngest of the two sisters, "Oh" she sighed "how wonderful to be as tall as a tree and to sway gently in the breeze".
"Then it is agreed sister dear" said the eldest and they pooled together small treasures and placed them into a small opaque box which they gently placed on the ground near their feet. They then stood side by side slightly tilting their bodies away from each other so as to not bump into one another as they grew taller and taller swaying gently in the breeze and spreading their arms up towards the warm sunlight. Here they remain still, letting the sunlight flicker through their fingers gently to the woodland floor where their feet are firmly rooted beside their small treasures hidden in the small casket. Listen and you may hear them quietly whispering in the breeze, breathe and smell their sweet woodland perfume so pure.
If you are lucky enough to find their casket of treasures, please take a treasure but be sure to leave one of yours for the sisters to admire and look after, by doing this then all the young fairies who follow you will find that this is a magical place too.
