In the Fairy Tale: Poem

 

In the Fairy Tale

In the fairy tale

For adults

Were a Snow White and seven dwarfs.

They taught respect for those

Who practice the love arts.

Little Red Riding Hood

Outsmarted Wolf in the wood.

She taught us bravery,

Never unneighborly.

The Gingerbread Man

Who looked for love

In all the wrong places –

Too much, too little,

Too late to look for Thumbelina,

The flower garden ballerina.

She married the fairy Prince,

In the Garden of Barleycorn.

After it was planted and sprouted,

Yardwork gets you a husband.
