Water Wishes

Go not into the Naiad's pool!
In those waters, dim and cool gleams a pale and lovely face framed in hair like green fern lace. Smooth as lily, and as cool.
By all that's holy, all that's good, shun the hollow in the wood. Where giant beech-trees grow, and the water-lilies glow, and the rushes, parting show wet limbs white as birchwood.
Never heed what you may hear, song that rises wild and clear from the little hidden mere, like a bird in no man's field.
If you harken, if you follow, to her water-haunted hollow, bid farewell to tilting-ground, plodding ox of Faithful hound! Deep in Faery you'll be bound. - Leah Bodine Drake
