True Magic
Real magic is heard in laughter
Real magic tickles your toes
Real magic can be felt in soft hugs
Real magic whistles when the wind blows.
Nature’s magic runs through thunder
Nature’s magic sparks in lightning
Nature’s magic may be seen in dark clouds
Nature’s magic is in the sky’s brightening.
Friendship’s magic is felt in kindness
Friendship’s magic is in happy tears
Friendship’s magic can give us courage
Friendship’s magic lasts through the years.
Real magic tickles your toes
Real magic can be felt in soft hugs
Real magic whistles when the wind blows.
Nature’s magic runs through thunder
Nature’s magic sparks in lightning
Nature’s magic may be seen in dark clouds
Nature’s magic is in the sky’s brightening.
Friendship’s magic is felt in kindness
Friendship’s magic is in happy tears
Friendship’s magic can give us courage
Friendship’s magic lasts through the years.
