Whoa! You can see me?

No, really, you can see me?

I’m looking right at you, and you are looking right back at me!

Well, it has been some time since anyone has opened the book. It is so nice you seeing me!

Humm . . .

You must be . . . I just can’t put my finger on it . . . Ah yes!

A Brow-SER! Right? Just Looking?

hmmm, that’s too easy . . .

and You are reading this.

Thinking here.

Nope, But I mean . . . Yep, you must be a . . .

Read-ER! Yes, Yes?

Bring the book closer.

Yep.

Yes, Hmmmm . . . back . . . focus.

Eyes that are able to see us and read all the pages that you are

Holding.

Well,

Welcome to our world!

Are you ready?

I should introduce myself.

I am SpellGet.

Yes, I know I look a little mischievous but then again maybe even a bit handsome. Well, that’s just looks! And that is a candid picture taken by Momma Stump. Really, I’m not that scary looking, but maybe. I know at the time it was taken I was thinking of all the magic I’ve been working with and studying to become a master of all its kinds. As you must know, magic is not just one thing but many things all wrapped up.

Will you walk with me? Watch your step.

Well, here you are! Just reading away without even a hint of magic or maybe? Hmm . . .

Is this something you’ve been working on? Or maybe it is something from the Hoo-mans?

Here in my world, magic is a privilege.

I’ve been studying for some time, finding, creating, and trying to perfect the craft. Most say you really have to have time, including some good-luos and Taerg-Traeh—sorry for the slang. In our world, it is like your words only they are spelt backwards, so in your world, it would be a Good Soul and Great Heart. Just remember these as they are very important here.

Moving along.

I must say you live with a strange bunch, the Hoo-mans. We have been observing your kind for some time now, and the observations always come back with too busy, too bored, or too tired to waste time wisely. Quite frankly, I believe your time just slips away. Precious time is given to all of you, and then we see you fill it with burdens, struggles, and woes, forgetting there’s other ways to escape your dramatized lives.

We also observed you have routines that quite honestly depress even me. You have a saying in your world, Take time to smell the flowers. Makes sense. That’s probably the real reason why many of you are unable to see us here
