Days Of Enchantment : Childhood

Days Of Enchantment

By Paul McCann

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fairies dwell under the enchantment .

Neither here or there they have been sent   .

I had become enchanted myself ,

When as a child I was dressed in wealth .

 

The wealth of innocence made me shine ,

I could see hidden things that were mine .

They’re all around us everyday ,

where fairies and children often play .

 

Enchanted we can fly here and there .

Enchanted and we’re walking on air .

Enchanted within realms of light .

Enchanted you must keep out of sight .

 

When fairies dance through enchanted rooms  

With children who spent their afternoons

riding on horses out on the tide  

with innocence saddled at their side .

 

As children grow the enchantment ends

But fairies are still those absent friends  .

They’re still around us everywhere 

But our innocence has been stripped bare  .

 

The wings that brought our enchanted shine 

have been clipped back by the hands of time   .

But I still remember well those days

When we were happy in many ways .
