For many years I read and created a mold A man above all who’s love would unfold Before his heart would be left unfulfilled He would want to be with me A romantic way to live Yet, many moons have since past My slipper is lost, The prince in my fairy tale Replaced by frogs with no songs My Romance gone wrong Still, in my older years I still hope maybe The elusive romance will somehow find me And I will be tasked to dig deep And compromise Romance or folly, temptation may be denied What is the romance we desire when we wait When the fantasy plays in your heart and the dance stops before it begins What re...

Through the eyes of a child a happy day can have consequences. Alice pushes the boundaries in this tale!
