He\u2019s a little magik boy<\/span><\/p>\n

known to fiction and real world joy<\/span><\/p>\n

millions love his special gift<\/span><\/p>\n

many enrobe themselves and lift<\/span><\/p>\n

their wands in unison, a rift<\/span><\/p>\n

and instantly the world\u2019s adrift<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Uttering lyrical rhythmic words<\/span><\/p>\n

swish and flick may sound absurd <\/span><\/p>\n

but we adore the learned mimes<\/span><\/p>\n

and pretending in medieval times <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Bravery and brains alike<\/span><\/p>\n

Potter and friends they take a hike<\/span><\/p>\n

but at their heels shall always be<\/span><\/p>\n

whose name must not be uttered, he<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

That wizard casts a glowering cloud<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2018cross every non-death eater around<\/span><\/p>\n

man and woman, boy and girl<\/span><\/p>\n

shudder from his gloomy swirl<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

But we, at Disney can pretend<\/span><\/p>\n

to vanquish Riddle in the end<\/span><\/p>\n

with scar across our muggle pates<\/span><\/p>\n

we raise our wands<\/span><\/p>\n

and dream our fates.<\/span><\/p>\n
