Just Another Wish
(Cinder)ella had pleaded
A wish she had needed
The young fairy was happy to provide
Ella desired a prince
Who would love her since
Her mother and father had died
The fairy went undercover
Hoping to discover
What would make the prince fall in love
Not for herself, of course
She was simply a source
A helper sent from up above
She posed as a healer
Hoping to feel her
Way to the prince’s heart
They met quite by chance
The prince wounded by lance
She healed him, and he did depart
The next day he returned
For his thanks, she had earned
His injury was healing quite well
He brought with him flowers
And the two talked for hours
The young fairy fell under his spell
Everyday the prince came
“I’m wounded”, he’d exclaim
Although the fairy knew he was lying
She made no complaint
At his pretend faint
Content to continue her spying
As the days passed by
She no longer had to try
Everything she needed to know she obtained
Yet leaving was painful
Her heart was acting disdainful
To her duty, the sad fairy was chained
It was just another wish
A simple flick and a swish
To transform Ella from duck to swan
While straightforward in theory
The fairy could not remain cheery
Her hope was hopelessly gone
Ella rushed to the ball
Head swimming with all
The information the fairy had given her
She’d be his dream girl
As pretty as a pearl
Excited, Ella couldn’t be happier
The fairy made up her mind
A simple dress she would find
And she’d attend the ball in disguise
To see her prince one last time
Was that really a crime
Before ascending back up to the skies
She stayed on the edge
Between people she’d wedge
To watch her prince dancing with Ella
Her heart thumped painfully
And she stumbled back gracelessly
Colliding with some random fella
A platter fell with a crash
Wine splattered with a splash
And all heads whipped in her direction
Her eyes widened with fear
And she tried to get clear
But too late, she could not flee detection
The prince grabbed her hand
And pulled her to stand
Easing her into a dance
She tried pulling away
But his hands did not sway
He leaned in, taking a chance
Their lips met with a kiss
And oh, it was bliss
When apart, she leaned to his ear
She told him of her magic
He did not find this tragic
His own mother was, in fact, a seer
The crowd watched the exchange
Found it a bit strange
But dismissed it with some quiet laughter
Perhaps in the epilogue
The fairy would get Ella a dog
And they'd all live happily ever after

Personally I love Power it gives the average entertainment Joe a voice that needs to be expressed to the masses.
You guys have been to good to me so far.
Just I hate opening up a can of worms that some people on this site seek to down rate or down play everything good up attempt to display.
Look I know there are critics out there but positive reinforcement strengthens one’s heart.
All this negativity & hate coming down is good for nothing.
Like Michael Jackson’s song, “I’m looking at the man in the mirror”.
We need to take a good deep look inside and realize no one is perfect.
Enough of my soap box rant on the issue of love just we need to keep it real & get back to the basics to really see the manifestation of love’s reality.
Stop all the hate all right enough said !
