Cinderella

Cinderella, my favorite fairy tale

A story that will never grow stale

I watched as she danced with her Prince

But when the clock struck twelve, she had to wince.

She left her glossy glass slippers

And ran with flickers

She tried to elude the Prince away

And treasured the beautiful memory at bay.

Everyday she would dance in the attic

Since the moment had turned to a memory in a tick

She harbored the memory in her heart

Like those of her parents and cherished her lot.

Days rolled by, and the Prince knew who he wanted

A search for the unknown would be Princess started

Finally after many a wrong discoveries

The Prince arrived at his sweet strawberry's.

Her cruel aunt shut her in

She saw her life beginning to dim

But "Have courage and be kind"

Her mother's message had her strength bind.

She was in a pursuit to tatter

Her aunt's plan, come what matter

She slid open the window and sat on the sill

And her aunt yelped like a fish without gill.

Lavender blue dilly, dilly

Lavender green

When I'm King dilly, dilly

You shall be Queen.

Who told you so dilly, dilly

Who told you so?

T'was my own heart dilly, dilly

That told me so.

Her lovely voice fell on the Prince's ears

On his command she was brought to be his forever years

"I aint perfect even though the glass slippers fit in perfectly

But I promise to love you faithfully".

"I shall marry for love and never for money

You will always be my sweet pot of honey"

At his words, her smile grew wider

And they lived happily ever after.
