Mystic powers, in her hands

Elfin magic, carefully planned

A talisman of water, blue

That hides the secrets, no one knew

Of how she came to be an elf

Different from her mortal self

They called her queen, with scepter tall

She ruled their world, the big and small

Never to learn that their precious queen

Knew her victory had been foreseen

Eyes wide, she’s fascinated
By everything she sees

Butterflies and ladybugs
Fly about, so free

Her imagination soars
In this little patch of land

Her chair is just a big old snail
She thinks he’s rather grand

Flowers and mushrooms sprout
Decorating the grass around her

As she takes in all the wonder
Of the beauty that surrounds her

Too many people, inside of my head

Most fill the hours, with sorrow or dread

Nothing makes sense, I just want to shout

The only way through, has no way out

I’m stuck here, inside me, what can I do?

I’m feeling so foolish, I wish that I knew

How to get rid of the confusion, so snide

It ruffles my feathers and flattens my pride

There’s too much noise, as it swirls all around

I need to plant my feet, on more solid ground

Though I try to quiet my brain, as I lie here, instead

Still seems like I’m drowning, in a nonsensical head

Sniffles and Snuffles, were nothing but trouble

When they got sick, it turned into double

Sneezing and coughing, back and forth it went

Ran out of tissues, the hot water bottle’s spent

Really don’t know what to do, for a monkey and teddy

I wish they would just get better already!

Magic, does my fiddle play

With music, that surrounds it

Heavenly sounds, a sweet array

In the air, that’s all around it

 

Listen to the whispering winds

Of the bow strings, as they glide

My fingers splayed, and disciplined

The fiddle and I, so unified
