Tell me grandma one more time, <br /> <br />Another of your story rhymes <br /> <br />Of a girl from long ago, <br /> <br />Whose heart was as pure as snow. <br /> <br />Tell me how she went from poor, <br /> <br />To a princess all adored. <br /> <br />And how the prince swept her away, <br /> <br />Just like all the stories say. <br /> <br /> <br />Dearest Gran although your gone, <br /> <br />I believe I've found the one. <br /> <br />He doesn't have a castle though, <br /> <br />Or any wealth he can show. <br /> <br />But he's the man who makes me smile, <br /> <br />and believe me, that's life's worth while. <br /> <br />Like a fairy tale we met, <br /> <br />Each precious day I won't forget. <br /> <br /> <br />In your stories I recall, <br /> <br />Life's not so easy after all. <br /> <br />An evil witch, a tyrant king <br /> <br />Bring on pain and suffering. <br /> <br />We had our share and that's for sure <br /> <br />True love alone can't be our cure. <br /> <br />But I will fight until at last, <br /> <br />I hold the coveted slipper of glass.<br /><br />Lucy Zamora<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/coveted-glass-slipper/
