Once Upon A Time

Once Upon A Time

A Poem by Jacqueline B Swezey

I once was a princess
with a shining gown
I once was a princess
till I lost my crown

I once was a peasant
with a garden proud and green
I once was a peasant
till I dropped a poisoned bean

I once was a joker
with jokes and a jingly hat
I once was a joker
till I tripped and fell flat

I once was a lil' witch
with a potion always brewing
I once was a lil' witch
till the town sent me a shooing

I am now a little fairy
glowing and alone
I am now a little fairy
granting wishes and unknown

I LOVED this one. Each stanza made me visualize something completely different! It actually reminds me a lot of a poem I wrote that I haven't posted here yet but I believe you've already read. Great job! Loved this one!
