Sweet Dreams

Sweet Dreams

At night when nearing seven
she creeps out of her room
carrying gold magic dust
in a special silver spoon

Across the dark sky
with great might she flies
sprinkling some dust
on each house she spies

To each good child
some dust is given
and off to sleep
they all are driven

Sweet dreams always
they all would get
for their chores and homework
they never forget

To each of them
good nights she bid
and every night
this she did

No one knows
where she lives
for not one clue
she ever gives.
