Midnight Fairies
While you lay sleeping all nice and snug
Wish fairies dance the jitterbug
Midnight tea parties beneath the trees
Musical bluebells and humming bees
Singing lullabies with enchanting spells
Sprinkle of fairy dust to waken the dells
Cupcake mountains and cinnamon swirls
Candy cane treats and lemon drop pearls
Fireflies transformed into magical lanterns
Forests glisten with shimmering patterns
Animals of the night give a gentle yawn
And fall asleep before the dawn
Wish fairies dance the jitterbug
Midnight tea parties beneath the trees
Musical bluebells and humming bees
Singing lullabies with enchanting spells
Sprinkle of fairy dust to waken the dells
Cupcake mountains and cinnamon swirls
Candy cane treats and lemon drop pearls
Fireflies transformed into magical lanterns
Forests glisten with shimmering patterns
Animals of the night give a gentle yawn
And fall asleep before the dawn
