A million stars,
shining through the gloom,
mist settles on fields of green,
faeries come to dance.

Seelie,
Unseelie,
all alike,
reveling in magic pure.

Replenished youth rises,
powerful and graceful,
they return,
for one night alone.

Red, yellow, brown, green,
leaves in their hair,
they dance,
they sing.

They eat and drink,
they laugh and joke,
for one night they rule,
the night of the Fae.

neat poem. The only thing I would change is when you list the colors, I would change the order because green almost rhymes with sing (or at lest they sound enough the same that it makes you expect the next stanza to rhyme and then when it doesn't you're confused). Then again, maybe it's just me confused I'm not a poetry expert or anything.
