Fairy Tail Lost

Once upon a time fairies had tails, feathers and even scales. This is the true tale of how and why fairies lost their tails. Well It all began in ancient times in the age of the dinosaurs The first fairies were like mini flimsy and flighty Archaeopteryx With scales, feathers and a long prehensile tail adorned with scales Fairies flipped their tails to cast spells But their tails were heavy and misspells were frequent. Undoing spells was costly, unsure and tricky. One day the fairy godmother decreed: "Fairy Tail spells are Old Hat and Flawed" "There's too many bad spells from miss-flicked tails" "Fairies need a wand in hand like me" "Fairy tails be gone!" With a 'Hey Presto' flick of godmother wand All fairy tails were painlessly excised And converted to hand-held magic wands So now you know The fairy tale of how a fairies lost their tails And stopped their misspells.
