Multitasking
by TD Euwaite

Poof and the Fairy
Dust muster buster wheezes

“Cough!”
and a waive of his hand to clear the air…

He peeks at the schedule (shedule, for Granny)

“I am here to grant three wishes!’

But we hasn’t asked any wishes!.
(he checks the schedule again)

“I am here to escort you to the ball!”

No, there is no ball to get exorted to!.

Perplexed, he pulls out his Fairy phone…There’s
lots of mumbling, then the Fairy goes outside…

“Can you hear me now!?”

“Correct! Job number 08000795!”

“What…right! Got it! Thanks!”

He’s coming back inside now…

“Have you lost a tooth!?”

Yeth thir!.

Well done! Here’s !.75¢

This was nice!. I was thinking of a fairy tale challenge of some sort after the last thing I wrote--though I also liked the "here is my first poem and here it is with rewrite thing"

Great ending on this one!.

It was hard not to think of this much darker tooth fairy poem though:
