Once in the Park

Walking by the park one day,
I thought I heard someone say
A whisper close to my ear.
I turned to see an odd leer
Of a Faerie watching me
With piqued curiosity.

The appearance of this Sidhe
Was quite a strange sight to see,
With tusks growing from his head,
And skin the color of lead.
He said, "Retreat whence you came,
Otherwise, give me your name."

"My name holds a great value
To a Faerie such as you,"
Was my indirect answer.
"You must excuse me now, sir."
He then melded with trees,
With nothing left but a breeze.
