Allison Morris #24 'A New Dress'

The enchanted princes–

swans and lions and frogs,

and the witches, clever but

vicious, and tricky,

and the fairy court,

with glittering shawls and

lamps made of blossoms-

Never seem as close

as when the flicker of silk

around your knees

whispers that 

enchantment is only 

one

        dance

                   away.
