The Fairy Tales Of The Heart

By Paul McCann

Once upon a time in a land of kindness ,

there was a Fairy who brought sight to blindness

and every one saw a beautiful new day

when a light as bright as ever shone its way

between the lines of unwritten stories there

to where the Fairy tales of the heart are shared ,

In pools of mystery where tall fish leap out

The golden ripples of time shimmed about

as the swan sang her song of a bright new day

when love came to the shores of serenity

and captured the fairy tale of poetry

who had locked it away for eternity

but once upon  a time some one found the key

and open it up for everyone to see

and the innocence of what was once was told

and in every stream there were ripples of gold

as ships came with treasures of dreams to unload

and the hopes of the world glowed on every road

and in the mountain meadows echoes were heard

and every one listened to every word

and the fairy tale of every heart was shared,

in a once upon a time when we all cared

in the land of kindness when everyone knew

what innocent was and how enchantment grew

in a time and place where we never got old

in Tir Na org where we had ripples of gold .
