Magic

Believe in magic

children do

To children everything is magic

and magic is everywhere

For a child

it is a magic world

There is magic in the mountains

because they look so close

and are so far

There is magic in the valleys

where the rivers and streams flow

There is magic in the lakes and seas

where the fishes roam

how do they breathe under the water

no one else can

There is magic in the trees

that grow so tall

There is magic in the animals

as pets in the home

or as creatures in the wild

playing hide and seek

for those who peek

There is magic in the birds

that fly so high

singing their songs

to all that would listen

There is magic in the air

that lets everyone

and everything

live and breathe

There is magic in the clouds

way so high

so white and light

almost out of sight

There is magic in the sky

that dome of blue

that holds down the clouds

and shapes the air

There is magic in the stars

and in the moon

those lights that shine in the night

changing the land and the sight

all dark yet lit

There is magic in the sun

that great light in the sky

that shines brighter than any other

the warming light

that gives us green grass

and brilliant flowers

and so many other things

There is magic in the people

that surround one and all

people make the world go round

and round and round

There is magic in everything

and everywhere

There is magic in everybody

whether you can see it or not

children believe in magic

and so do I
