I believed in horses with horns and even in horses with wings!
I thought at the bottom of the garden fairies would dance and play.
I thought that under every bridge there lived a troll and,
when on my own, I stayed well away from them.
It never occurred to me then that a fairy collecting teeth was a curious creature.

The Sandman, Santa Claus, dragons and elves,
these now seem just as implausible at least.
I no longer believe in talking frogs
The very idea of Rumplestiltskin just makes me laugh.
I now know better than to believe in any of these.
But there is one thing that I believed in then that even today I still believe is true.
There are some who would say "It is just a fairytale"
but I believe in living happily ever after.....
