All they saw
Was an old house,
Not many thought
It felt like home.
As I looked on
From afar now,
Inside they stood
Drenched in love.
Sharing secrets
And stories made up;
Of magic carpets,
And talking teacups.
Of flying rickshaws,
Like daddy owns;
Playing hopscotch,
With old gemstones.
With each story,
The laughter grew,
And as I watched,
My hopes renewed.
Asked they to me,
When I went inside,
Of secrets I could share;
And with an old smile,
I held them and told,
Magic was right there.
