Fiery Fairy Adventure - Nursery Rhyme
There was a fairy whose name was Fanny,
She had a dear friend whose name was Danny,
At night, they used to stroll among flowers,
Talking and walking, they forgot the hours,
Before they noticed, it was early morn,
Time to hide from men in the field of corn,
One night, they were sauntering as always,
When Fanny saw the cornfield was ablaze,
She and Danny called Fred, Jane, Claire and James,
They carried water to put out the flames,
Flying with speed, but they couldn't put it out,
The breeze was blowing, it spread all about,
Danny said, "The humans, we must wake up,
This fire is huge and we need some backup",
Fanny and friends flew to the nearest house,
And beat on pots and pans, people to rouse,
They got up and saw their cornfield on fire,
Fanny, Danny and friends hid on the spire,
Soon, firefighters came and the fire was doused,
Adventure over, worn-out fairies drowsed.
