Tooth Fairy

The poem describes a child waiting for the tooth fairy to arrive after losing a tooth. In the first stanza, the child lays in their soft bed watching their fish swim as they wait for the tooth fairy with the sky bright and clear outside. In the second stanza, the child's tooth wiggles and bends before pulling loose, knowing the tooth fairy will come if they put the tooth under their pillow. In the final stanza, the child falls asleep but wakes to the sound of jingles, finding a shiny coin left by the tooth fairy in place of their lost tooth.

Name :

The Tooth Fairy


by Katie Clark

My pillow is soft and my bedroom is dim.


I lay in my bed as I watch my fish swim.
I’m waiting for someone, I know she’ll be here.
The window is open. The sky’s bright and clear.

At first my tooth wiggled. It twisted and bent.


But then it pulled loose, and I knew what it meant!
The tooth fairy comes if you do it all right,
you slip your tooth under your pillow at night.

My eyes feel so heavy. I’m falling asleep.


But then I hear jingles. I don’t make a peep.
She’s gone in a moment. I search on my sheet.
A bright, shiny coin is the best kind of treat.
