I love your integral, essential and melodic rhythm and rhyme
which added to the flavor and color of your poem. This in turn helped did flow very smoothly which made it easy for me to read your poem clearly. Rhymes without neither forcing, straining or laboring words. You made the fairies come to life and that is a great achievement. Thank you for posting and sharing this for others. May you have a good one always.

Hi Carolyn,

I'm going to close my eyes real tight and see if a fairy will come to me with a cough remedy. :)

I loved your sweet, sweet children's poem! Had I a sixer left to dole out, it would certainly be yours for this creative write.

"Pee Pee fairy trains her tots to feel a little bladder blot" .... how creative! Loved "blue-berry munches and honey-suckle lunches ... terrific imagery and rhyming with that.

I think any child would be delighted to have this read to them.

Terrific job, Carolyn!

Connie :)

Hi, Carolyn.
This is such a sweet poem for children. I really enjoyed how you showed not only the tooth fairy, but the "pee pee" fairy. This is great and something kids can relate to perfectly. You captured so nicely the magic of fairies. Well done.
Bye
Rosalyne :)

never heard of the pee pee fairy. . .maybe I should have read up on him/her?

curious about the decision to repeat this line: they're every where

overall, a good read

    I think the pee-pee fairy just got her job descrition with the writing of this poem. LOL Repeated line was for double emphasis. Thank you for reading and commenting.

This is a very cute and fun to read poem. i love fairies. I When I was a child I thought that hummingbirds were really fairies. Thanks for sharing a very enjoyable poem,

    The hummingbird is probably the closest thing to them our human eye will ever see, as fairies are a part of our inner child's imagination. I am delighted you enjoyed this one. :-) Carolyn

    As long as we can still believe and enjoy things like fairies, we will always remain young at heart.
