I Wish I Was A

Coral Bell was a dainty, delicate faerie. She often wore the colors of the sea Her iridescent gowns shimmered Sparkling with pearls and rhinestones Reminding the mermaids of ocean waves I wish I was a faerie, said a mermaid, to herself. I wish I was a mermaid, Coral Bell thought. Neither realizing they were perfect the way they were.

Caren, I guess it is as the old saying goes, 'the grass is always greener on the other side.'

So many people wish their lives away, sadly.
