Looking like a tiny princess Her dress the palest blue Gold dust falling round her A happy giggle as she flew She laughed and then went flitting Around the garden park Resting on a toadstool Listening to the golden lark Her feet in rosy satin slippers With shiny buckles too I knew I must be dreaming When she sipped the morning dew All to soon the picture faded As I heard a voice so sweet "Up my dear; its time for school" Alas, my fairy dream complete............

This was fun to read. It is so light and full of color. I see I have some competition in the contest. Oh, well, maybe I'll have better luck with the next one. Good Job! : )

What a wonderful dream to have, Barbara! I thought you were describing Tinkerbell so having you wake up at the end was a surprise. Delightful verse that should do very well in the contest. Love from your fellow LNC, Carolyn
