And finally the sun shines,
And finally the warmth is felt.
Then ends the gray winter,
And thus the story begins...
Of a girl with a tender smile,
but her eyes filled with tears
wandering aimlessly barefeet,
Running away from her cries and her fears.
A ragged doll and a candy bar are all she has,
looking for a friend to share,
alas she finds no one,
to play, to laugh with or to even care.
Alone and tired, she then sits down,
to eat her candy bar,
suddenly a miracle happens,
And then she sees an angel fairy, afar.
She walks towards her and kneels
and bows her head to the ground.
And then touches angel's feet with her hands,
And kisses her famous wand.
She then lifts up her head and the angel asks
"My dear child, my darling, oh why are you so sad?"
The girl replies," I have a doll and a candy bar
but never a boyfriend. Am I really that bad?"
The Angel smiles and says
"My child, If I grant you a boyfriend,
you can share your doll and candy with.
Will you be happy and will your troubles end?"
The girl replies, with a smile really wide,
"Oh dear Angel, that would be just fine,
and I will be happy and I will play
in the grass and the meadows, under the sunshine"
And so the angel, with her magic,
chants a mantra and swirls her wand.
The lil girl looks at the boy that appeared
Happy with the new friend she had found.
She shows him the doll and the candy bar,
hoping he would take a bite.
But, oops what just happened here
He shows her a fist and then a frown and picks up a mighty fight.
"Oh you silly girl with the ragged doll,
from a candy bar, you do get joy!
What good will that do, when tomorrow
you will be hungry again!" Said the boy.
Shocked to hear such a reply,
tears welled in the girl's eyes,
She longed to play with him all day,
and hoped, he wouldn't be so wise.
The boy continued with his sermons,
to the girl, on ways of life.
While the girl prayed that one day,
She would grow up to be his wife.
She tried to change herself,
so she put the candy and doll aside.
To be with the boy, her friend,
and prepared for rules, she'd abide.
Times changed and seasons turned,
Lil girl no longer a girl and the boy now a man.
Lead a simple life, with little necessities
a small house with a kitchen, a room and a small fan.
While he would go tend the cows for the milk,
Cooking, cleaning and washing were all she would do.
He would be busy with the money and friends
she hoped he'd spend time with her too.
But one day, when she was packing
to leave to the place unknown and far,
with the man, her husband, her only friend.
She found her ragged doll and her candy bar.
She cried and cried till her eyes went red,
and she could not stand anymore.
Then appeared the fairy angel,
smiling, just as before.
She then lifts up her head and the angel asks
"My dear child, my darling, oh why are you so sad?"
The girl replies," I have a doll and a candy bar
but could never have a friend. Am I really that bad?"
The Angel smiled again, and said
"Oh dear, this is just a test.
This is all just a dream,
to see if you really knew what is best".
The angel took the girl in her arms,
and swirled her wand again,
and Lo behold the girl was back,
and everything was just the same.
And then another swirl,
and what I can I say,
the little girl, now had a friend, but she was another girl,
And happily ever after, did they play!
