The Song of the Self Heal Fairy
From Flower Fairies of the Wayside, and I thought painted a picture of an animal hospital.
When little Elves have cut themselves,
Or Mouse has hurt her tail,
Or Froggies arm has come to harm,
This herb will never fail.
The Fairies skill can cure each ill
And soothe the sorest pain;
She'll bathe and bind,
and soon they'll find
That they are well again.
-Cicely Mary Barker
(1895-1973)
