A little something fun to brighten your day.<\/em><\/p>\n

A shining start to the day
\nThe sun a bright friend for play
\nThe children bubble from their doors
\nAnd search for fairies on the moons.<\/p>\n

Good Fairies all giggle and hide
\nIn grassy fields and river side
\nWicked fairies join in, too
\nAnd watch the children to catch a few!<\/p>\n

Helpful spirits dance and tease
\nAnd conspire with the passing breeze
\nTo thwart the wicked fairy plot
\nAnd, of course, not get caught.<\/p>\n

Childish eyes and innocent hearts
\nCan find each place a fairy departs
\nAnd chase them with the summer breeze
\nAs they chase them through the moorland seas.<\/p>\n

And so the wicked are kept at bay
\nAnd the good children all get to play.<\/p>\n
