O, Fairy Godmother

I know it is your job
To please the young children,
And orphans and maids.
To grant their wishes and hope they will behave.
I know you must fly around this way and that.
To help out all the kids, whatever they need.
But I will just say that your daughter is here,
Looking out of a window upon a small star,
Wondering when her mother will return
And grant her daughter’s wish.
I wish for you to be with me
For longer than an hour.
But I know you have work to do
Helping the other children, and women.
I just wish I had a Fairy God Mother too.
