There Is a Magical Land Not Far Away
There is a magical land not so far away
Where all is colour no shades of grey
Where unicorns joust
and centaurs play
Hush now, listen to the fairies song
Their golden harps sound all day long
The wondrous elves weave a flaxen thread
into a silken sheet for a young princess's bed
The Queen of dreams waves her amber wand
and stardust scatters over a crystal pond
High above where the winged horses fly
a multi-hued bow frames an electric
blue sky
Where is this mysterious realm?
I hear you say
Where could it be, if not far away?
It is real enough is my reply!
It is in my daughter's smile and in
the twinkle of her
eye.
