Fireflies

Before you met me, I was a fairy princess
I caught frogs and called them prince
And made myself a queen
Before you knew me I'd traveled 'round the world
I slept in castles
And fell in love
Because I was taught to dream

I found mayonnaise bottles and poked holes on top
To capture Tinker Bell
And they were just fireflies to the untrained eye
But I could always tell

I believe in fairy tales
And dreamer's dreams
Like bedsheet sails
And I believe in Peter Pan and miracles,
Anything I can to get by
And fireflies

Before I grew up, I saw you on a cloud
I could bless myself in your name
And pat you on your wings
And before I grew up, I heard you whisper so loud
Life is hard and so is love child,
Believe in all these things

I found mayonnaise bottles and poked holes on top
To capture Tinker Bell
And they were just fireflies to the untrained eye
But I could always tell
I believe in fairy tales
And dreamer's dreams
Like bedsheet sails
And I believe in Peter Pan
And miracles, anything I can to get by . . .
And fireflies
. . .Fireflies

Before you met me, I was a fairy princess
I caught frogs and called them prince
And made myself a queen
And before you knew me I'd traveled 'round the world
And I slept in castles
And fell in love
Because I was taught to dream

hi enid,

what beautiful words. faith hill is one of my favorite people, along with her husband. i love their life, and their commitment to God, to each other, to their children, to their work, and to their fans.

i believe in dreams and them coming true; i also believe in miracles, and i'm looking forward to receiving both in 2007.

I WISH YOU A JOYOUS AND PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR. MAY ALL OF YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE, AND MAY GOD GRANT YOU THE DESIRES OF YOUR HEART. (Psalm 37:4)

love & hugs,
sylvia

ENID, I tried to post on Clickgirl but it wouldn't work. Ada

I'm on the East coast & saw the New Year in in Annapolis, MD, our capital. they do something called 1st Night. I think that's a misnomer (should be last night). Anyway they have all these venues with various entertainment. It a cute, small colonial town so it's easy to get from place to place. Had a lovely dinner. At some places they were full but we saw a few things. It was warmish for our area but it began to rain around 10 p.m. Still the fireworks
(I love frieworks)were great. Appropos of this site, one was a heart in a heart.

So all AHs (I like that ahs)have a Happy New Year's Day & I wish you all the best in 2007.

Ada

P.S. Thanks for stopping @ my blog. Maybe I will even find time in 2007 to upgrade it.

HAPPY NEW YEAR ENID FROM MY FAMILY TO YOURS.

MAY I FIND MY WAY DOWN TO BELIZE THIS YEAR TO SAY HELLO.

I love fireworks, but the wind prevented them last night. The crowds were heavy on the beach so we just went home and watched the ball drop in NY. Us East Coast people get to celebrate first.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Wishing you and your family a wonderful New Year too.

hi enid...i know you're relaxing and enjoying your day off today. i was thinking we don't need skype if you have a mike. all you have to do is log on and turn on the mike, and we can communicate. we can try it out that way and see what happens.

May you have a wonderful and happy new year in 2007.

All the best.
