Poppet

The toad stool upon which Poppet sat bent slightly under her slight weight. he fairy wings moved with the breeze. Poppet loved to sit her under the trees out of view. Watch the children play there games. How she wished that she could join in. Years ago she had been left behind when here family had be chased out of their home in the grand oak tree. She was able to fend for herself but she was very lonely . She tried to remember what had happened to her family, why they had ran away and left her behind?
   The children ran past her spot again and snapped her back to the moment. The laughs of joy made her smile and again she wanted to join in the fun. As she watched Poppet noticed a little girl sitting by herself on the other side of the park. she was not playing and didn't seem to be watching either. Looking to see where the group of children where she Poppet ventured across the Park to the little girl and hid behind the log on which she sat. "Hello" the little girl said "My name is Mandy ,Whats yours?" poppet was amazed "how did you know i was here I walked behind you" Mandy giggled " I heard you silly, so what is your name?" "Poppet " replied poppet. " I would like to play chasing games but I am blind so i can't" Poppet felt sad for her.
   The two sat quietly for a while. " Poppet where do you live I have not heard of you before or heard you play games" "I live in the grand oak tree." "I am a fairy" she said trying to stop herself.
"are you? can you do magic?" Mandy sounded excited. It was Poppet's turn to giggle."no I cannot, I can fly though" "will you be my friend?" Mandy asked ," I don't have friends really people all ways feel sorry for me and don't let me play" "I would love to be your friend, I have no friends either my family left and I don't know why" "I think we will be good friends" Mandy said smiling.
   Mandy's mother came out of her house and and walked over to fetch Mandy , Mandy took her mothers hand and stood goodbye Poppet, Mandy's mother scolded her "no more imaginary friends Mandy I cannot take anymore of that nonsense "sorry mum" Mandy replied "I didn't see my friend leave" Mandy smiled as she heard Poppet buzz past .
