Fairy Tales Will Never Fail

Every girl looks for her Prince Charming,
this is nothing new or alarming.
Every boy is searching for the one,
to be his princess he can carry into the set of the sun.
Adelaide, your typical romance fanatic is sitting in the Milton library,
a young man admired her through the shelves by the name of Harry.

This was a frequent game they would play,
Harry had no way to impress her; no dragons to slay.
Adelaide picked up an enchanted book,
glowing brighter than the smile on Harry’s face; it was hard not to look.
In an instant Adelaide disappeared,
Harry instantly touched the book because losing Adelaide he feared.

Transported into a land of fairy tales; Adelaide pricked her finger on a thorn of a flower,
Harry was pleased to see that she was not stuck in a tower.
Harry waited for his princess to faint,
having an excuse to kiss her hopefully without complaint.
She awoke once their lips gently touched without fail,
my princess, shall we begin our fairy tale?

WoW! Haley, I wondered who had penned such a well written fairy tale. It was lovely and romantic. It had all the components that made good fairy tale. It a had girl(Princess), a boy ( Prince). I loved the part about them being transported to a magical place( within a fairy tale book). You are an exceptional writer. Congratulations on your 1st place win in my contest. PS, I apologize for taking so long to judge the contest:-) Alexis

Ahh, you have written this poem wonderfully, truly a joy to read, you are right, everyone wants a fairytale in their life and in order to have one, you don t need to be prince, or marry a prince, it all starts with happiness, as you don t need money to be happy, just enjoy every moment of life and wait for your fairytale to start, I guess that it s for a contest, so good luck
