Fair damsels in distress

Little girl down at the pond

with your magic fairy wand

changing frogs to princely charm

to keep among your toadstool farm

You play with such delight and ease

and abundant joy that does not cease

among the dirt and dust and grime

forgetful of the date and time.

Little girl in your fairy bed tonight

when your mum turns out the light,

and ominous dark corners fill the house,

will you from your peaceful sleep arouse

to ward off the witch with her evil potion,

with your own, concocted from hand lotion?

Little girl, when your fantasies take flight,

you fill my days with unimagined delight.
