May we all be blessed to be like Alice in Wonderland 
and before our life is done…
realize when it comes to fairy tales…
we’re living in the middle of one.

the woods in despair
evergreens and cuckoo clocks
i’m lost in Grimm fairy tales

in black forestry
cherries, chocolate ganache
dessert to die for

As children they loved listening to fairy tales
of adventures…large and small
then once upon a time they discovered
life …is a wonderful fairy tale
and…the greatest adventure of them all...

I have always loved but never believed in love.
From the start I was your rockstar princess.
Fairy tales mend even the most broken hearts. 
Your song found mine and the glass slippers fit....

Fairy Tales..

Fairy tales ride

On the feathers of time..

The feathers fall and

Reveal the wisp of time..

Leaving the sky

Not-ending and open

For new tales arising

And feathers falling......

our
time
cashed out
way before
the meter expired
sending our dreams somersaulting
helter skelter to the whims of what never was planned
leaving fairy tales breathless, our favorite song, weeping still, in the landfill of love...

pond of piranhas  

become as hot as Hades

clothesline of deaf ears

A gloom I found 
hot as Hades in a garden
of dreams, fairy tales,
romance, and music....

Today I’m thankful for dragons:

For showing me the wonder of magic and fairy tales…
because, when I think back I am still amazed…and proud…
remembering the first day I experienced that magic…
when I saw a dragon in a cloud....

Fairy tales and make believe,
Incredible life changing adventures,
Characters that come alive,
Time after time after time.
Intense emotions are displayed,
Overwhelming odds overcome in a
Nice diversion from reality.

day dreaming 
picturesque
scenery created 
within the wounding 
mind's eye 
dreamscape of 
mental illusions 
mind games played 
within the subconscious
generating falsehoods 
passing fairy tales 
of as personal reality 
mental distortion...

   deeper, deeper plunge
   in darkening woods
   branches fallen
   cross your way
   as you fall
   where once you stood

   sunlight gone
   sounds unnerve
   skin crawling
   while fancies swerve
   like fairy tales
   enthralling

The sparks will fly
and often mystify
when dreams
give birth
to words
unspoken

Fairy tales come alive
mixed with nations lore
and the melody
of the two worlds
blend true
 
In dreamers wanderings
one wants not
for the other
as love transends
the journals
of time...

I
open
my book as
I sit in my
cozy little nook. The words I'm reading
bring pictures to my mind. Tales come alive!
I'm a princess
waking to
true love's
kiss!

Do you know
Love hurts when you don't want it
Your heart breaks more than mends
Life is not like the fairy tales
Do you know
Your eyes reveal all
Your smile hides it
Do you know
History repeats itself
But living in the past
Gives no hope for the future
Do you know...

Fairy tales don't exist
Is what they tell us as little black girls
We go to school
Listen to mom and dad
Grow up and have a child
Give them everything you have
To feel unappreciated
Only to try your best
For nobody to understand
A perfect life
Just 
Does not
Exist...

Sweet as sugar daisy,
it’s that opening line.
Wild strawberry energy,
it’s that very first couplet.
Fairy tales start with poetry,
a quest for a thousand and one.
The ebb and flow of that journey,
follow along relax and recline 
this is the viridescent princess’s story..

in the dark,
i hear your name,
wondering blind,
never to be the same,

so many choices,
what to do?
can i just give up,
searching for you

one true love,
hidden behind,
lies and fairytales,
none too kind,

sit here and wait,
scarred and numb,
reflecting past,
feeling dumb....
