Those silly grown-ups! Blind as can be,
A spinning top is all that they see,
but WE know the secret, because if you look,
it's a magical genie, just like in the book!
Watch real close, as the plunger I push,
and hang on, 'cause the magic comes in a rush,
the colors start moving, and the stars get all twirled,
and we're blown 'cross the oceans, to the Fairy Queen's World!
Pixies, and pirate ships! Cats that have wings!
Horses that dance, and a dragon that sings!
Come ride the dolphins, on adventures we'll go,
to the places only children and the poets can know!
We can stay for an hour, or longer, I bet,
until dinner's ready and the table is set,
but when Mommy's not looking, or thinks we're in bed,
the genie will take us back here, instead!

And that reminds me - I hope you don't mind, but I posted one of your poems yesterday - I really screwed up the graphics, but the poem was great as always....
