Of course Fairy Tales can come true Daws

Have I done something wrong..8 long years..regretted being forsaken not feted..more pong than gong it appears

Charismatic Selectors mistaken..phlegmatic..enigmatic or erratic

Dramatic not pragmatic nor didactic tactic

Despite the fans throng that he does belong

After an en song bounty..one of the best county careers

Premium MemberFAIRY TALE LIVES

For me…when times are rough…I think back to Fairy Tales….
How evil wins its share of battles…but in the end…how good prevails.

Whenever I fight evil…sometimes I lose…sometimes I win…
and oftentimes I’m in need of mending….
but I truly believe for every Once Upon a Time 
there should be a happy ending.

I also know life in not always

Read Classic Fairy Tales

Foolish girl, keep away from frustration and pain
only concentrate on your books, happiness and future; 
so many girls think their thoughts are really mature;
will they take them far in life? It's not time for rain!

At fifteen you shouldn't think about dating;
spoiled girl, stop wiggling, stop laughing:
realize that I'm old enough to be your dad;
I'm going

Premium MemberRefurbished Fairy Tales: The Real Skinny on Snow White

!!!CAVEAT LECTOR!!! This one's a bit naughty, dear readers...

You've heard of Snow White
And the story reported
Of the seven wee dudes
With whom she consorted.
Well, here's the actual skinny
On what really occurred,
Just another example
Of how stories get blurred.

The facts are quite shocking,
Some may be offended,
But read on, if you dare,
Discretion much recommended.
The dwarves toiled in a mine

Today I’m thankful for fairy tales…

Albert Einstein, a man who should know believed
If you want your children to be intelligent
read them fairy tales…

He had even more to say on this subject

If you want them to be more intelligent, 
He said

Premium MemberHAPPILY EVEN AFTER

Once upon a time I was a little boy who grew up amid joy and laughter…
where every fairy tale I ever read ended with happily ever after.

And that’s what I dreamed for myself…a life of joy and laughter
that started with Once Upon A Time and ended with Happily Ever After.

Then I grew up and as

Premium MemberWhen Fairy Tales Mess With Your Dreams

I fell down,
beneath the ground,
Alice was there,
in her blue gown.

A rabbit running around,
he was in a hurry, someplace to go,
his pocket watch ticking,
I believe it was slow.

A red headed woman,
with an enormous head ,
two twin brothers,
who appeared very well fed.

A little mouse with a sharp pin,
tried to stick me in the rear-endby ft,
he stole the

HAPPY ENDINGS

We all grew up listening to fairy tales like Goldilocks and the three bears…
From Jack, who climbed the beanstalk, to Rapunzel, who let down her hair.

As we snuggled safe, secure and happy neath the covers of our bed…
tales of kings and queens and castles are the stories our parents read.

We dreamed we’d be that

No Fairy Tales

I do
I do
Once upon a time
I did

Crash
Blood
Dismembered parts of us

Burned arteries
Holding
A heart 
Still beating
Still bleeding

 the past
Is a blade 
Memories cut
Deep
As the knife of regret
Slices what’s left
Of our lives

I do
I do
Once upon a time
Remember you


What was
So different
From 

What is
And what now is not.

high on a hilltop
stands the castle of the wind
in fuchsia rose mists

enchanted fortress
with a broad moat surrounding
child's fairy tale land

palace of bright stars
when the crescent moon's shining
all indigo night

castle of the clouds
in brass sunshine of morning
when dreams have come true

Premium MemberRefurbished Fairy Tales: Cinderella, If the Shoe Fits Part Three

The happily ever after...

He searched the kingdom for a fortnight 'til all saddle sore and weary,
With his eyes bloodshot and bleary,
The prince arrived at the last door.
He found two sisters, far too ugly, and an even uglier mother,
And asked himself why even bother,
This whole darn quest's become a bore.

Then from the kitchen came the vision

At the ball...

At this point in the tale, a happy ending should be pending,
But readers now are more demanding,
And so, I'll tweak a bit the plot.
Cinderella made an entrance like aurora borealis
That sent a shockwave through the palace,
"Who is this chick? Man, she is hot!"

When the prince caught her attention, his anxieties enflamed him,
But when

Premium MemberRefurbished Fairy Tales: Cinderella, If the Shoe Fits Part I

Once upon a time...

Once upon a time, in France, a storyteller fella
Wrote of a girl named Cinderella,
Meant as a fairy tale romance.
Her daddy died when she was young, and she was forced to share his riches
With three monumental b****es,
A most unhappy circumstance.

For years her stepmom and stepsibs made her perform a menial's duty,
And as she
