Dear Fairy, At the midnight hour Take my tooth but leave some power With which it would be fun to fool The teacher with her sums at school And help me with my nouns and verbs And spelling words I never heard. But if you can't, it is all right My friendly fairy of the night. Bernadette. Dear Bernadette, Charms and spells and magic powers Will only work in worlds like ours. But you have love and smiles and youth. And all I have is your big tooth! Tooth Fairy.
