Fairest Fairy Tale
Once upon a time, in a town far away,
You know how the story goes;
There lived a young girl with ebony black hair,
Snow white skin, and lips red as the rose;
The evil queen wanted her dead, jealous of her refreshing looks,
But the actual reason as to why- no one really knows.
“Mirror, Mirror on the wall who’s the fairest of them all?”
To which Mirror revealed Snow White;
Queen didn’t know the princess was not her competition for beauty,
Mirror showed a girl whose judgement was always right;
Level headed, honest in her actions, played by every rule,
Her fairness was indeed a sight;
For, Mirror was wiser and not petty like the Queen,
This created such a plight.
“Run, Snow White, Run-she wants to kill you,” the Huntsman advised,
So off into the forest she ran away then;
Exhausted she found herself a house to rest her eyes and rest her legs,
Waking up surrounded by seven strange little men;
She taught them manners and kept up the house while they went away and mined,
Until the Queen in disguise still sought out her yet again;
Poisoning her with the apple, cackling at her success until she realized she had lost
For Snow White’s Prince saved her with a kiss above her chin.
If Mirror showed the most beautiful girl around instead of one with a judgment fair,
The Queen would’ve left poor Snow White alone;
She would’ve sought some long flowy locks, rosy cheeks, snooty princess,
Already sitting upon a golden throne;
Now this princess, though breathtakingly beautiful to all those around her,
Was a compulsive liar and as exciting as talking to a scone;
If Mirror showed beauty, Queen would’ve chased after this high horse girl,
But still in the end, her plan to rule would be blown.
This perfect haired girl also had a brother, who everyone knows as our Prince,
The one who Snow White owes her life to;
Say the Queen was successful in doing away with the golden princess,
The Prince would be the ruler of new;
Every guard and knight would defend that castle upon hearing the evil ways of the Queen,
Closing the gates, ensuring she never get through;
Snow White would’ve been saved so much grief and avoided a sleeping coma spell,
But Mirror’s misjudgment of the Queen’s request in lieu;
Of course, the most important part of all that wouldn’t change in the slightest bit,
Is Snow White and the Prince lived happily ever after, as they always do.
