Wishing Well Faerie
Wishing well faerie spent her days at the well
Praying for things for people who rang her bell
Most asked for things for others, not for themselves
Many wanted to heal their brothers, especially elves.
Wishing well faerie loved her position of giving to others.
She was able to visualize happiness for fathers and mothers.
Her wishes could instill hope in children who had many worries.
She could stir up happiness and joy in teensy snow flurries.
Wishing well faerie never got tired of her job, in the kelp.
She liked being the one people came to, asking for help.
What do you do in the winters, a nosy gnome asked her.
I help in Santa’s work shop, and I work them all faster.
Wishing well faerie never got tired or bored.
She loved it when people pulled the wishing well cord.
It brought her instantly and gave her an idea too.
Most who came felt more optimistic when they were through.
Wishing well faerie was satisfied all of her days it is true.
She felt fulfilled and excited, never depressed or blue
For when you help out others, your heart is on fire with love.
It is a gift known by social workers, mothers, and angels above.
