THE QWERTY FAIRY

THE QWERTY FAIRY

I am the Qwerty Fairy

By your keyboard I hide,

And when you sit down to type

I am by your side.

You think you have your fingers

On the right keys for your word

But I have other ideas for you

To confuse you I have been dared.

When you think that you are typing

Word with letters in the right place

I suggest you look again closely

And hide your blushing face.

For the word "you" - you type "yuo"

And for "quiet" you type "quite"

It is really very confusing

It will give you such a fright.

Clicking on your keyboard

Remember I am there

To "help" you write your letters

 Because you know I care.

I watch you try so carefully 

To get things in proper place,

But remember I am with you

When you hit enter instead of space.

I sit upon the Caps Lock

So others think you're yelling,

There is no knowing what I do

There really is no telling.

I am the Qwerty Fairy 

And with mischief I abide

No matter how careful you are

I am always at your side.

Even though I am a Fairy

I cannot be all around

That's why there are several

Qwerty Fairies with joy to abound.

We get the "Ls "and "Ks" mixed

And add an "S"  here and there

 I wonder if you hear our laughter

As you begin to tear your hair.

We Qwerty Fae really do not like

The "spell check" feature,

It takes a lot of the fun away

We're funny little creatures.

Don't be hard on yourself 

The blame does not lie with you 

You can't be responsible

For the things that we do.

I am the Qwerty Fairy 

Just calling in to say Hi"

Remember to read before you send

And I'll try to fly by.
