Magic Things

I believe in magic things

In fairy tales of queens and kings

In ugly dragons breathing fire

And wishes for a heart's desire.

I believe in unicorns

And elves that dance on sunny morns

In mermaids deep beneath the seas

And bean stalks tall as redwood trees.

I believe in witches brew

In gremlins, warlocks, wizards, too

In rainbows hiding pots of gold

And legends that have been retold.

I believe in falling stars

In outer space, and life on Mars

In tossing coins in wishing wells

And ocean waves inside sea shells.

I believe that demons flow

Through gossip whispered soft and low

In nightmares holding unvoiced fears

That roses grow from angels tears.

I believe we live again

Death a new time to begin

That each and every earthly loss

Determines how our stars will cross.

I believe each tear you cry

Becomes a star that maps the sky

That will lead me, born anew

Somehow, somewhere, someday, to you.
