I found this wonderful short poem posted on Facebook a while back, and loved it. I hope you do, too.
Sometimes the Wolf Cries Girl
by Sian Wilmot (srwpoetry)
Sometimes the hero stumbles
and falls right off the page.
Sometimes the princess
rolls her eyes and says,
"I don't want to be saved."
Sometimes the dragon needs rescuing
and the villain aches to be helped.
Sometimes, in the darkness,
the lost boy finds himself.
Sometimes the prince is cunning
and not at all who he seemed.
Sometimes the witch's kindness shows
it's she who deserves to be queen.
Sometimes we shouldn't define people
based on somebody else's point of view -
just because it's what we've been told
doesn't make it true.
"Just because it's what we've been told doesn't make it true" ought to be our motto during the time of Der Furor and his hateful regime.
Have a good day and enjoy the rest of your weekend. More thoughts coming.
Bilbo
