Peeps the Really Truly Sunshine Fairy Images: Frontspiece Aunt Nancy will tell you a story, dears, How Peeps the sunshine sprite appears, And how she brought the sunshine gay To Betty and to John one day. The thunder rumbled and grumbled and growled, The wind-storm roared, hallooed and howled, As John and Betty stood wishing that day For Peeps to drive the clouds away. When the forests are shady and all is dark The wood fairies gather to hold a lark In hollows deep where none can see And all night long they dance in glee. The little gnomes of jewel-land Dig up the gold from diamond sand, And crystals bright above them sway To make their palace light as day. All the little light sprites living in the sky, Keep so very busy as the days go by, All around the heavens on a cloud they ride Or sit upon a sunbeam to take a little slide. Here are the ten happy fairies, my dears, Who cut out a piece of the sky with a shears And before the queen, in a coat all new, Peeps stands ready to come to you. How Peeps, the Sunshine Fairy true, In cloak and hood of gold and blue Slid down the rainbow, bright and gay, To Betty and to John that day. How softly, swiftly, gently glide The fairies on the rainbow slide! Just see how gracefully Peeps descends Among her little happy friends. Here's Peeps and John and Betty, too, And little birds who gaily flew To welcome Peeps with happy cries As she descended from the skies. "Peeps, Peeps, Peeps, the birdies were singing, As around little Peeps they gaily were winging, And here is how Peeps was seen that day Before the wind carried her blue cloak away. Tailpiece
