Introduction

The introductory poem that I had written for my old poetry book ^.^

Now listen children

gather 'round

and I'll tell you a story 

of happinss not found

not gifted or saved

or put in a box 

and left to escape

it does not start

with "once upon a time"

and does not end

happy and prime

there are no glass slippers

or maidins to save

no handsome princes

or love to be paved

it's rathere put to the side

forgotten and lost 

but taking its place

something brimming with frost

the cold it does cary

and the chills it will bring

are of equal greatness

as a happy ending

listen close childrn 

now listen will

and I'll tell you a story

that was written by fear

and tampered by hell

First, I like this, I like the darkness of it. It wold be great to put at the begging of a dark story. I also like the rhyme scheme. You do need to fix some typos though. I am sure you mean "children" and "well" when you said "childrn" and "will"
