Fairies

Flit! Flit! Flit!
Amidst the brightness of a sparkling night sky 
Flickering about a starlit universe 
Sweet to be a fairy 
Lovely to be this free
Once like you, we did our time
Gave it the old college try
Flunked out of life
Called home
Chastised for our misadventures
And told that one-day we’ll have to go back
But not until they catch us!
Flit! Flit! Flit!
Dancing through the galaxies our spirits hum
Yes, we’ll have to go back…
God is good.
The secret of the universe?
God loves His fairies!
