It's also a snippet to a possible story series I might make, after I finish the school year and watch Wicked. I would title the story series Dormant Waters.","content":"Gifts, Curses, BlessingsAunt Humility:I wish to give you beautyThat's seen from the inside.Acceptance is your dutyYou'll have nothing to hide.Aunt Olivia:I wish to give you witTo spread everywhere.Make the mindless quit,You'll be fair and square.Aunt Charity:I wish to give you graceFor your talents to make.With your charming faceMany hearts will break.Aunt Terpsichore:I wish to give you dance;Be light on your own feet.Critics won't stand a chanceAs you waltz your way to Crete.Aunts Mona and Lisa:We give to you song and musicTo play notes high and low.You will become majesticTo the envious ApolloAunt Delphine:I wish to give you a bedBut receiving it is a trick.In time you shall be dead!Because of a simple prick.Aunt Hope:I wish to give you sleep.You shall not die.Your rest will be deepAs time passes by."}
