Cassandra's Fairytale
Once upon a time
there was a princess
named Cassandra
who was an only child
What she missed most
with all her heart
was a brother or a sister
to play with
so she would never be lonely
Princess Cassandra
lived in a crystal castle
high on a mountain
surrounded by a big forest
Every day she would go out for a walk
she would meet elves and faeries
and friendly birds and animals
She knew everyone of them by name
and talked to them for hours
it was always the highlight of her day
On one lovely day when the sun
was shining especially radiant
and there was a big bright rainbow in the sky
there were millions of colourful butterflies
birds flying high in formation
ducks lined up parading on the lake
fish jumping in hoops and loops
chipmunks darting all about ~
every creature was out even itty bitty snails
All the elves and faeries
were dancing in the meadow
and when they saw Cassandra approach
everyone shouted
in harmony :
SURPRISE!!
This is a birthday party for you
We don’t want you to ever again be lonely
We are all your family
Because we love you!
