Teach Me The Magic

Teach me the magic
That crowns me in song
And calls out the name of the place I belong
And let me stay there for awhile
Being there makes my heart smile

Teach me the magic
Of brooms whizzing by
Chasing a bright golden orb that can fly
And let me go back to a time
When the magic of childhood was mine

Let me taste candy in new and strange flavors
And let me play games that explode
I want letters owls gave to me
Pictures that wave to me,
Mysteries expertly told


Teach me the magic
Of  friendships that bind
Stirred by adventures three young people find
And ever more people will read
For Harry is magic indeed!
Thank You For Harry

With every new generation
I know in my heart we will find
Along with the visions of Huck and of Alice
Harry will capture the mind

While readers are thrilled by the magic
Emitted from wands in the air
They’ll reflect on one woman’s imagination
And know the best magic was there

Where the spirit world blends with the living
Fear and joy blend with perfect éclat
And words find their way in our everyday language
As we try on our “sorting hat”

And go where we’re told we’re best suited
To a world that is filled with delight
That place will be waiting inside of the books
The most beloved writers will write
