Smile Once upon a time

THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN READ TO US WHEN WE WERE LITTLE!


Once upon a time

~~~~~~~~

in a land far away,

~~~~~~~~

a beautiful, independent, self-assured princess

~~~~~~~~

happened upon a frog as she sat contemplating ecological issues
on the shores of an unpolluted pond in a verdant meadow near her castle.

~~~~~~~~

The frog hopped into the princess' lap and said: " Elegant Lady,
I was once a handsome prince, until an evil witch cast a spell upon me.

~~~~~~~~

One kiss from you , however, and I will turn back
into the dapper, young prince that I am

~~~~~~~~
and then, my sweet, we can marry

~~~~~~~~

and set up housekeeping in your castle

~~~~~~~~

with my mother,

~~~~~~~~

where you can prepare my meals,

~~~~~~~~

clean my clothes, bear my children,

~~~~~~~~

and forever feel grateful and happy doing so. "
~~~~~~~~

That night,
~~~~~~~~

as the princess dined sumptuously

~~~~~~~~

on lightly sauteed frog legs

~~~~~~~~

seasoned in a white wine

~~~~~~~

and onion cream sauce,

~~~~~~~~

she chuckled and thought to herself:

~~~~~~~~

I don't freakin think so.

LOL. I had to write a politically correct fairy tale for one of my classes and I was pretty proud of it. It was called Snow Caucasian and the Seven Short Statured Men.
