Lily the Fairy and the Lost Spark
Lily the Fairy and the Lost Spark
Once upon a time, in a land filled with flowers and sparkling streams, lived a little fairy named Lily. Lily had big, bright eyes and wings that shimmered like rainbows. She loved to play in her fairy world.
One sunny morning, Lily found something new. It was a tiny ball of light, like a little star, but it wasn't in the sky. It was lost and scared. Lily knew she had to help. She held it in her hands. "Don't worry," she whispered. "I'll help you find your way home."
Lily flew over tall trees and green hills. She asked the birds, "Have you seen where this little spark belongs?" The birds sang, "We haven't, but maybe the wise old owl knows!"
Lily went to the owl. The owl said, "The spark belongs to the Wishing Well. It helps wishes come true!"
Lily flew to the Wishing Well. She gently placed the spark back where it belonged. The spark shined brightly. It was so happy! Lily smiled. She helped the spark find its way. Now, wishes can come true again!
