Since my friend Gershon Wolf gave me the Russian word for Cinderella, I felt I ought to use it, so thank you my friend!

Cindy was chased from her home by an evil stepmother she felt sad and alone a light snow began it lightened her mood she liked the crystal flakes a Russian castle appeared it felt wonderful Was it a mirage? Faerie godmother congratulated herself Poof. She was clothed now in a gorgeous red velvet gown. Curls glanced across her back, making her feel elegant. Handsome czar ran out to meet … the zolushka of his dreams.

Thought you might be interested: In Russian, Cinderella is 'Zolushka!' (for whatever it's worth). Smiles, Gershon
