Comment from Righteous Riter
Good end rhyming. Good perfect rhyming with night/light...lost/cost...re/bed...munches/lunches...tight/might. Good description and alliteration as I can see my kids reading this piece. Good work.

Carolyn, this is great. My granddaughter would love this. She's two-and-a-half and loves Tinker Bell.
Your poem shows how these wee-little fairies help children through there young life bringing them along the right path.
Nicely done, John

Even though we know fairies are a figment of our imagination they are such fun to think about. Hummingbirds are the closest thing to a fairy we will see with our human eye. But the minds eye is a different thing. John, I am happy you enjoyed this one. Love, Carolyn
Comment from Jessie Denniel
Whoa! I read your poem as if I wish fairies were true. It is right for children's poem. It is very interesting and relaxing. I like the picture too..

Comment from mfowler
I've been looking all about me for writing fairies since rading this, but alas I think I'm too old and cynical to see them. In the meantime, your fast moving and delightful poem informed me about the works and motivations of fairies. I knew about the tooth one, but the wee fairy is a whole new role I was not aware of. As I get older, and need to get up at night for frequent visits, I am going to remember that it's a wee fairy who's prodding me. If I open my eyes I may just see him, but if I'm not careful I might step on him. Hope not, they sound very useful.

Comment from Akanksha Mahajan
Very nice poem about fairies. I liked the imagination that fairies are small. The rhymes are perfect. The picture is best suitable.
GREAT Work.
Thank you so much for sharing.

Comment from tfawcus
I've heard of the tooth fairy before but the pee-pee fairy is a new one on me. Somehow it doesn't quite seem to fit within the traditional folklore concept of faerie. Your poem has a nice rhythmic feel to it making it sound good when read aloud and the somewhat random rhyme scheme works quite well... but Lord save me from pee pee fairies.

Yes, the pee-pee fairy was only dreamed up yesterday to assist with potty training of little tots. We will see how she works out. Thanks for the delightful review. :-) Carolyn
