Inspired by @misslittleDHP's 'as a little girl' :) ----------------------------- As a child, I lay awake, Staring up at the midnight bait, Where the stars shone, Where Peter pan flies, Were the fairies live, In those shining skies.
The silence shone, The owls hummed, And little girls like me were afraid of the dark, But I had no fear, Not a single mark.
I closed my eyes, The twinkle of the stars put me to sleep, But I didn't know who I would meet, I dreamed of me and Peter pan, Flying through the skies of Neverland.
Soon a little knock, Sounded, In rhythm with the old cuckoo clock, And I got up, Straight away, Excited, Wanting to know the secrets of this midnight may.
A little spark, A little light, A little dazzle, Shone so bright! Outside my window it knocked, Outside my window it ticked, Outside my window it tocked.
I opened the window, To let the mystery in, And there it all started! There the magic would begin!
The little star, That wandered through my room, Turned out to be a fairy, I wish I could of zoomed.
It cast a spell, On me, And I counted to three, Then I woke up, In the morning, With a necklace of pure stars, That shimmered and shone, Like a singing harp.
And that morning I made a run, To show this wonder, To my mum, And she pondered where this came from? The beauty shone, From like a star, And still this necklace I wear, Treasuring it with great care.
Maybe one day, This fairy will come, And greet me in the moon like sun.
