Dont’ Take Away the Magic
September 26th, 2007 by Linda Jenkinson- When the full moon smiles down on me,
- Don’t tell me it’s just a bunch of craters on a lifeless clump of dust.
- Let me have the man in the moon.
- Don’t take away the magic.
- When fireflies zig and zag through the night
- Don’t tell me they are just phosphorescent insects.
- Let me have the stardust.
- Don’t take away the magic.
- When the rainbow stretches gloriously across the storm ravaged sky
- Don’t tell me its colors come from sunlight refracted through moisture
- Let me have the bluebird on the other side
- Don’t take away the magic.
- I know that it’s right to be practical
- But you know it isn’t always practical to be right.
- Let me have the whimsy.
- Don’t take away the magic.
