Cinders Wishes



Cinders Wishes 

 

This is my fella 
To him I am his Cinderella
He adores me with such  a passion 
Working endlessly to figure the latest fashion 
What he seems to
 forget 
 That time, love perhaps a walk in the park
Would make my heart sing  
like the sweetest skylark
Not trying to sculpt my perfect shoes 
For,
Love
Is what my Prince Charming 
Could lose !




Many thanks to Rob Hanson for the use of the wonderful picture !

    "This is my fella

    Such a cool opening! Love how you spun this into an admirer's tale that both praises and chides a little bit. Very nicely done.

    Too often love is lost spending too much time doing something other than the simplest things - lovely - Steve

    A fun, clever take on that fairy tale. It complements that picture so well.

    I have always liked Cinderella - and the idea of the perfect shoe. True, sometimes company/words/concern could be a better form of cultivating a relationship.
