The Day the Magic Died






The Day the Magic Died

On a dark and blustery day my granddaughter

asked

“Grandpa where is the car parked?”

“I think in a distant galaxy far far away.”

“That’s just silly, where is it really?”


I think the day the magic died was

the day silliness was in question,

no more monsters in the closet,

no more night lights,

soon no more bedtime stories.

Tentatively I asked,

“When you

are a teenager will you have time for me?”

“Don’t be silly grandpa, that depends on what my

friends are doing.”
