I just wanted to share this.
My daughter wrote it.
The Magic Box
I will put in the box
The first flower of summer
Freedom for everyone
And the chuckles of a baby
I will put in the box
A deer with a grumbling belly
A sip of the purest water from a green lake
The wing of a beautiful bird
I will put in the box
Ten blue wishes spoken in Egyptian
The last tusk of a woolly mammoth
And the first autumn breeze rustling in the trees
I will put in the box
A yellow night and some blue grass
A lawyer at the circus
And a clown at court
My box is fashioned with diamonds and rubies and pearls
With glitter on the lid and snake skin on the corners
Its hinges are made of a baby's giggles
I shall float in my box
All over the world and come ashore on the moon
The colour of the creamiest cream.
