Erasing Doubt Poem by Theresa Ann Moore

Erasing Doubt



A small slender fair hair girl
sat upon a plumped pillow
drawing with her soulful skills
one of her favorite subjects...
verified by her vivid imagination

A stately cat with almond eyes
appeared upon the drawing pad
resting on her cross-legged lap
Grandma, do you believe in fairies
she asked… without reservation

I am not sure I do… I've never
seen one in all my years of living
She responded… your disbelief
has caused a lovely nymph to die...
I felt the chill of annihilation

Is it possible that I never noticed
Perhaps I overlooked the possibility
If I say it could be possible
Will the fairy revive and stay...
No, her wings are losing their lumination

Suddenly her little brother hastened
I believe... please Grandma reconsider
Give a nod and think it in your heart
A sparkle within his youthful blue eyes
erased doubt and unveiled celebration
