Mythos
A tooth! my first!
exclaimed the small boy
Eyes filled with tears
of pure simple joy
He ran to his mom
clutching it tight
and burst in the room
squealing with delight.
Many questions he asked
one after another
about the tooth fairy
perplexing his mother
She listened intently
with him on her knee
"write them all down
for the fairy to see"
The boy set to his task
with paper and pen
and slowly wondered
where to begin
"Where are you from?"
"What do you do with the tooth?"
"How do you fly?"
Please tell me the truth
With the letter all done
he placed it under his pillow
then slid into bed
just like a minnow
He fell fast asleep
dreaming his dreams
and awoke the next morning
with a jubilant scream
A reply he did find
under his head
He opened it fast
to see what it said
"A time long ago
there was a boy just like you
who saved us from tragedy
when humans were new"
"Great battles were fought
with creatures of all kind
and magic was something
quite easy to find"
"But humans grew old
and got very greedy
then corrupted themselves
into something quite needy"
"Power corrupts
unless you're quite wise
We could all see the signs
no more light in their eyes"
"They tricked us quite often
and hunted us down
stealing our magic
for their own crowns"
Centaurs and Fairies
Dragons and Elves
Among many others
started saving themselves"
"We learned how to hide
here in plain sight
by changing our vibration
so as not to fight"
"Then a spark in the dark
flashed bright and true
and we knew in that instance
just what to do"
"A child was born
innocent and pure
with him knowing
He was our savior"
"A secret he hid
within his own tooth
a secret of magic
the heart has in youth"
"Magic that courses
through children like you
who understand love
in all of it's hue's"
"The teeth we collect
and crush into powder
to Help us retain
our magical power"
"For magic is something
that comes from within
of pureness and love
but not evil or sin"
"A warning there is
and hear it you must
If you force a tooth out
it will turn to rust"
"Powder from teeth
forced out before ready
corrupt the pure magic
making it unsteady"
"This kind of magic
creates creatures not nice
Like goblins and trolls
so always think twice"
"Now let me be clear
about all that I've said
Feel with your heart
and not with your head"
"Face and embrace
The beauty of you
Believe in the magic
and let it accrue"
