Hmmm...This ought to do nicely.
Going
back to the box she kneels beside it and open it up. She lifts out
a small carousel and sets it down in the middle of the clearing. It's
a lovely little toy carousel, with a red and white striped roof and
tiny, delicate little mirrors set in the top. Next, she lifts out
the animals one at a time, unwrapping the tissue paper from each and
carefully setting each into it's niche in the bottom of the carousel.
There are horses, menagarie animals and even a swan carriage, just
like the old fashioned carousels from the turn of the century. It
was a gift to her this Christmas but the best gifts are the ones which
can be shared, so she has brought it to Cuddleland. She finishes placing
all the animals and winds the carousel up. It plays "The Carousel
Waltz", and gathering up the box and the paper she carries them a
few feet away from the carousel.
Lessee....I know I had the magic
dust somewhere...
Patting
her pockets she finally locates the packet that Santa gave her when
she asked for something to thank all the wonderful people in Cuddleland
with...
Ah HA!
She takes out the
packet and pours the contents into her hand...the powder sparkes and
shimmers. She holds her hand up before her face, closes her eyes real
tight, says the magic word three times and
*blows*......
Suddenly
there is a FLASH of light and the tiny carousel begins to change...
It grows and
grows...
Until finally
the tiny toy carousel turns into a full sized Magic Carousel with
lights and music and animals which seemed to laugh and dance as they
spun round and round the merry sounding band organ!
This Carousel
is my Christmas gift to Cuddleland, and Santa has promised me that
the Carousel will remain here so long as even ONE cuddler has not
had a ride.

...And thanks to the Magic of
all the special residents of Cuddleland, Tiernan's Magic Carousel
is now Cuddleland's Magic Carousel!
