(A collaboration of a few Ipoh Talk forum members)
Two dainty fairies on the water sit
Their snow white wings by the sunlight lit
Said the left fairy to the right
We’ll both be sunburned by tonight
I’m sure the tan will fade by and by
The fairy replied with a little sigh
Though beautiful rhymes the three have made
Alas ! we know the tan won’t fade
Though it’s often said that beauty is only skin deep
Nevertheless the two fairies’ good looks are for keeps
Thank you guys for your kind words and thoughts
But sun-burnt fairy wings will surely rot
My wings clipped ! Heaven forbid !
Wingless fairies are useless to kids
Dear Liz the fairies cried, it can’t be so
We still need to flit to and fro
So my friends let’s pray for rain
To ease the poor little fairies’ pain
Showers of blessings will come forth from above
To rejuvenate your earthly petals with all it's love
O thank you dear Ken for your prayers so sweet
For the showers of blessings to cool down the heat
Alas! My friends the showers of blessings couldn't save
The poor little fairies that started this rave
Two stars they've become in the dark night sky
Shining on us from the "sweet by and by"
