Let the words flow freely from your crisp pages
And let the letters dance happily,
Like fairies let out of their cages.
May your stories fly,
Lift off and touch the sky.
Let words carry me to a new world
Where everything is twisted,
distorted, curled.
May children see Peter Pan’s ship in front of the moon,
Or see a realm in a blue lagoon.
Let libraries be flooded with visitors
Taking down book after book,
Reading about magic or a thieving crook.
May you always be around,
Your bindings safe and sound.
Let us in to your wonderful stories,
And let us hear your silky words link together,
Making a tale of enchanting characters or great glories.
May you always be used for good rather than evil,
And may your letters soar like and eagle.
Let the spellbound creatures of the written words
Litter your pages with a heroic tale.
May they be written with as much beauty as a
nightingale.
Let us in!
Let us in!
