T, a F I T G
There's A Fairy In The Garden.
There's a fairy under the toadstool behind the garden shed.
I sometimes catch her dancing when she thinks I'm in my bed.
She waits until all the lights go out then gracefully dances the night away.
My fairy I call twinkle can't be seen during the day.
But I hear her brush past the rose bush and paddle in the pond.
I wish that I could speak with her but I don't think she'll respond.
She appears to be extremely shy and if she hears a sound
she scurries off to hide herself and is no-where to be found.
But I like to think my fairy will one night call to me.
Then I would go and play with her, where no-one else could see.
And it would be our secret for an hour every night
I would play and I'd protect her and keep her out of sight.
My fairy under the toadstool behind the garden shed
Would no longer be all alone, but have a friend instead.
