I heard a noise under the sink that sounded like a clink, I think. At first, I thought it was the cat, her collar can make sounds like that. But this tinkled, more like a bell ringing as far as I could tell. Now, what could it possibly be, I just had to go look and see. It couldn't be a rat or a mouse, there are none of those in our house. I cracked open the cupboard door for a quick peek, and nothing more. But what I saw was not scary, it was a trapped, frightened fairy. She looked up, smiled, and winked at me, for I was there to set her free. Prettier than a butterfly, her wings were as blue as the sky. How she got trapped, I'll never know, but I'm happy I let her go. (Rhyme) 03/27/2023 Children Sing to Rhyme Sponsored by: Eve Roper

What a delightful song to capture the imaginations of children - of all ages Emile! A wonderful story! Is there an epilogue? Would be fun to know what happens to you and your blue fairy! Congratulations on your win and foray into fantasy! Happy Easter Season!
