Etheree – Fairy Tales by Sally Cronin

Fair
maidens
grace the plot
of old fables
and of fairy tales,
gaining princes and crowns.
How unfair of the writers,
to deny those more unsightly,
all the riches within the pages
and the right to happy ever after.

  2. What a delightful Etheree, Sally. I love how you defend the “normal” looking folks! Fairytales can really wreak havoc on a young girl’s mind and self-worth. Fabulous take on the prompt words. ❤
