It is the Keeper
Who keeps the garden’s key
Where all the secrets
You cannot see.
~~~
Squirrels, birds, and rabbits
All meet the Keeper
Right next to the flowers, the trees,
The wasps, and the bumblebees.
~~~
Where are the Fairies?
The Keeper asked the bees
No one has seen them
Except for thee.
~~~
Now it is midnight
It’s time to sleep tight
Tomorrow in the secret garden
The Fairies we will all see with delight.
