In the fairy town of Dragonfly Cove, the air is filled with anticipation
For tonight is the town's biggest event, its Halloween celebration
The fairies are up with the first rays of the sun
Decorating and baking, there is much to be done
In the afternoon, they all take a much-needed rest
Then they will need plenty of time to get dressed
When the stars come out over Dragonfly Hall
The fairies start arriving for the Halloween Ball
They come all decked out in their finest costumes
Bedazzling in flowers and ribbons and plumes
They admire the costumes of every guest
They all have opinions on which one is best
Platters overflow with food, deliciously divine
To be washed down with a glass of gooseberry wine
The band has set up and is playing a lively tune
The fairies dance until morning by the light of the moon
Fairies Celebrating Halloween
A Fairy Ball At Dragonfly Cove
