Airwalking

Last night was simply exquisite. Tired of assignments and dissertations and all that other stuff, I decided to do something I hadn't done in a while...airwalking. Now don't jump to any conclusions, intoxicants had nothing to do with this...it's all in the power of the human mind.

I decided to pay a visit to the Moon above and after an hour or so of munching on frosted rain flakes and chit-chatting about so many things I decided to move on.

I caught the night air fairies just as they were about to embark on their weekly visit to Starcrest Beach. I admit it was a surprise when they invited me, and having nothing else to do I gladly agreed to go with them. It was a wonderful trip and the long walk was worth it as Andresia the Fair, the most melodious of all air fairies kept boredom and tiredness away with her angelic voice, singing for us the entire journey. I had to admit she sounded a lot like Leigh Nash...especially when she sang "Never Finish"^-^

Having built a huge castle of stardust I left my jolly company of fairies and decided to surprise my old friend, Klobby-Wobby, the shoe gnome. As expected he was busy cobbling shoes for poor little children when I arrived. He was his usual self- merry,cheerful with his cheeks like cherries glowing in the faint light of his little candle. He told me that he'd been having a hard time of late as no matter how hard he worked there are just too many poor children and he was just unable to make shoes for them all. "And you human-folk do nothing for these little tykes. You would be able to do much more than I could ever accomplish if you just tried." I knew he was right and I was ashamed and sorry for him and all the little children around the world. To do whatever little I could, I spent the next few hours with Klobby helping him make shoes.

Soon I could hear the Sun cheerfully greeting the Moon a good morning and I knew that I had to return soon. I took my leave from Klobby and returned to my bed relaxed and ready for a new day.

The next time I go airwalking again I have decided I will straightaway head to Klobby's and spend time helping him make shoes. I owe it to that little gnome with a big heart.
