Seeing the inner woods spotlighted sent my imagination into overdrive. I could've sworn I heard musical "tinkling" bells and glimpsed tiny faerie ballerinas swirling on broad sassafras or oak sapling leaves. Some of the little gigglers leaped from branch to branch. Others played hide-and-seek with leprechauns, while gnomes sang high-pitched nasal tunes and danced hand-in-hand in a wide circle on the thick woods floor. The dancing and bell-tinkling neared crescendo - until - our cat darted across in front of me, chasing a very real butterfly. Poof...the faeries, leprechauns and gnomes pretty much vaporized before my eyes. For a while, though, there was magic in that little spotlighted wooded area.
Take time to find some magic in your world. It's only an imagination away.
