"A Fairy Godmother's Beliefs"
                     written by *The Fairy Godmother*
                                                             (aka Debi Leitner)

To be a child is magic,
            to believe in things unseen,
To be so filled with wonder that
             the world is full of dreams.
A child's heart hears a whisper
             of the fairies when they sing
And giggles with the tickle from    
           a touch of fairy wings.
Small ears can hear the laughter that
             the elves make when they play.
And little eyes see past the walls
             where "Grown-ups" tend to stay.
Yes, childhood is for magic,
      but that time does not last long, 
As just like fairy dust,
         it sparkles brightly
                  ....then it's gone.
