St Mark's CE Primary School

    Dear Mrs McCaren,
    As one of the volunteer helpers at the TN22+ club, it was very touching to
    receive from Wendy a copy of your email attaching enchanting works and
    messages from the children amongst those, who entertained all the members so
    self-assuredly a little while ago and were due to do so again. Let's hope
    that it will not be too long before we see them all again. They are a credit
    to you and to St Marks.
    As a thank you, I attach the lyrics to a ballet dream sequence that I wrote
    for children, which you might like to read to the children.
    With best wishes,
    Mark. 

A Child’s Dream.

Wandering on the seashore of your mind,

Filled with wonder at the treasures you may find,

Golden coins in the sand

From some far and distant land.

Thistledown is drifting on the breeze,

Dancing, prancing, all the leaves a’tease

Sharing dreams with every cloud

Joys of Heaven called out loud,

Of dragons have no fear tonight,

Elves and fairies see you’re guarded right,

Your favourite toys all seem to smile so free

And, laughing, jump from every tree,

Yes they do.

Whilst you go running through the woods so bright.

You’re all surrounded by a wondrous light

Yes, all surrounded by a wondrous light,

A truly wondrous light,

A truly wondrous light,

The magic woods so bright,

Oh Yes, they are.

(Repeat above 4 lines).

And coming to the distant sea once more,

The waves they flow, caress and love the shore,

Residing peace steals over you so deep,

And now to sleep.
