At times escapes
the child in me
A bit princess
and a tad fairy
She dons her crown
and a velvet gown
Glitter wand in hand
necklace of pastel
coloured down.
She is a comic nymph
with slippered,
nimble feet
An impish grin
makes her sprightly
ruse complete.
She will dance
and sing~
sprinkle fairy dust
Yet ......
too soon bid
a fond adieu'
as she knows
she must.
But, don't dispair
make-believe is
part of me
This ageless
pixie one
will be back~
You'll see !!
