Gossamer.

A happy thought of long gone childhood literature. Enid Blyton.

We're really showing age,

As we turn another page,

Life in the Magic Faraway Tree,

Gossamer floating fairy,

Translucent veil of Silky,

Ethereal and delicate,

Gauzy and so  intricate,

Sheer and diaphanous,

Cobweb wings so vaporous,

Someone kind to take her hand,

Smiling face of Saucepan Man,

Now I'm old, I've got a job,

I've turned into Dame Washalot,

Our imaginary friends have faded away.....

Yes , we're all showing our age,

Let's turn another magical page.
