Fairy Tale Poem

Oh look at these fairy tales

Waiting for me

What tales and adventures

Might I expect to see

Please tell me

Mirror mirror on the wall

Who is the fairest of them all

Is it that wicked witch

With the home to devour

Or is it that old hag

With apples so sour

Oh no, this can't be right

And just isn't fair

The good must prevail

And not despair

So, please think of Red

So polished and polite

She outsmarted that wolf

Without even a fight

And remember Cinderella

With the magical feet

She filled herself with hope

and not defeat

Don't forget Snow White

So sweet and tender

She learned to survive

And not to surrender

Now, let's forget the evil

Who always seemed to tower

And remember these girls

Are the ones with the power

We often notice that our favorite fairy tale characters are portrayed in these stories as weak figures only used for domestic purposes. I composed this poem to give our characters strength and courage to their readers. Their attributes are never pointed to enough.
