A Fairy's Tale

Beyond five-color-banded rainbow is fairyland nestled deep in fragrant flowered valleys. Comforting breezes flow when giant wings expand flying baby blue skies over gumdrop alleys. Sweet confetti sprinkle marmalade mountain peaks towering high above cotton candy clouds. Cool chocolate milk flows through giant rivers and creeks snaking its way amidst huge ravenous crowds. Warm gingerbread houses line fairyland hamlet tucked away near dark-fudge-mud-cake talus. It rains sugar crystal tears without getting wet however; mint green grass grows regardless. Fairies travel miles to turn teeth into money do so more often to add a big smile. Although they look and dress kind of funny their sure kindness never runs out of style. Not everyone is a fairy in fairyland sprouting wings is very hard to achieve. One must be gentle and have a kind hand but most of all, they must believe. Copyright © 2011 By Caryl S.
