Glass slipper

entry picture

 My Modern Makeover of Cinderella.... Cos you're never too old for a fairytale!!!

Once upon a time

There was a prince

He kept meeting damsels

That made him wince

But he had a glass slipper

That's all that mattered

'I'll find it's owner

Though her 

Dress may be tattered'

Then one day he 

Came up with a plan

To stop being a Prince

Just an ordinary man

So Indeed, that's exactly

What he became

He went so far

As to change his name

Next thing he opened a

Charity shop

Where he hid that glass slipper

On a shelf 

At the top

Aww Thank You Adam, That's exactly my thought to this is one of those poems that I was tempted to write ' to be continued' at the end of! Glad you enjoyed reading it

So fun a poem. I hope one day the love of his life came in to the shop looking for that slipper he had at the top and once she had put it on they lived happily ever after.

But I'm a sucker for happy endings.

The Prince changed his name
To little Joe Pants
His charity shop
He named The Ants Pantz

A slipper was hid
On shelf at the top
My poem's all mixed up
I think it's flop....?.
