What be this that I hold in my hands,
some magical creature from some far away lands,
with Wings as delicate as a Dragonfly's be,
why is it Dear Creature you have come unto me?
It seems in my childhood in the stories I read,
or listened to as mother would put me to bed,
there were creatures within them that seemed such as you,
with names such as Tinkerbell and SugarPlums, too.
And though those days are long gone and as strange as this seems...
how I wish that this vision was not of my dreams.
