Fairytales and Glass
.
Croaking toads,
Shooting stars,
Snowy roads.
Fairytales are so bleak
A magical world creeps
Illusions slyly speak
Of a world not so true
Just to visit in dreams
An utopian brew
The world homes sharks, no fairies alas
And anyday gives pain more than joy
No chocolate fountains, just plain brass
Glass palaces shatter more than often
And the world is mostly brazen rocks
Nothing is yielded if you soften
Yet a short good tale at night inspires
It presents hope and it is untrue
But enjoy that, before it expires.
