Explore "Ganderfeather's Gift" by Eugene Field on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
I WAS just a little thing / When a fairy came and kissed me; / Floating in upon the light / Of a haunted summer night, / Lo! the fairies came to sing / Pretty slumber songs, and bring / Certain boons that else had missed me.
From a dream I turned to see / What those strangers brought for me, / When that fairy up and kissed me, -- / Here, upon this cheek, he kissed me!
