THE FAIRY BUSH
As I walked on the grass one day, Lazily up and down.
I saw inside a bush near by A little fairy town.
The houses all were made of leaves, The doors were made of grass And in and out the fairies tripped, I saw a Princess pass.
She looked just like a butterfly In dress so gay and light, The sun shone on it as she went And made it look so bright.
And then a Prince came riding by. He didn't stop at all
But rode straight through the bush
and then
Into the garden wall,
The bricks had somehow melted up And might have been a cloud And then I saw a messenger Who blew a trumpet loud.
The dives came running at his blast in twos and threes and fours, They flew out from the houses and They slammed the little doors.
