Cinderella on horseback Jan 15, 2024

 

 She changes her face

The way most people

Change their clothing,

A blink of eye

and she’s a little girl again

a wee bit naughty

yet still innocent,

Cinderella,

 who dresses up for the ball,

in search of a Prince Charming

Who never arrives

With her glass slipper,

Though she pretends

He does,

Truth lays in her wide open eyes,

Even as she rides

Even looking a wee bit silly

with camera affixed to her head,

galloping into the future

chest puffed up

as if she’s just won

first prize

 

 Journal 2024
