The Crystal Slipper Was Huge

The crystal slipper was huge, enormous size,
 Seeing the shoe, the prince felt  paralysed.
 He cried out: - To marry on her I have not any guts,
What have you done Perrault, I see you are nuts?

Prince jumped on a horse, so frightened and pale,
He galloped away for better or  worse- to more suitable tale.

Enjoyed this poetic remastering of the 'tired (and I mean tired!) and not-so-true tale!. ~ Cliche-ridden
