Faerie With a Kookaburra

What kind of faerie has her very own kookaburra?
I do not own him, he is my best friend, the tree faerie said.
But he is always with you, helping you dust the willy whacker leaves.
He does that by himself, she told the elf. He has that covered. 

And he helps you whistle that happy tune every day!
The faerie tried to be patient, but this elf was getting on her nerves.
I have always whistled the Joyfulness Song, even before I knew him.
What would you like the kookaburra to do for you?

I want him to be my best friend too, the elf admitted.
You can come to tea with us tomorrow, the faerie told him.
At two o’clock they had their tea and they became friends.
And the elf stopped being ridiculously jealous for no reason.

Well, I certainly think that was a perfect ending. Anything that puts the kaibosh on jealousy!

Jealousy is such a silly emotion
