Ordinary Me

You may have seen me

You may have not

Nothing more than ordinary

Normal like most


I haven’t lived many adventures

But many I can tell

Being Goldilocks’s big sister

and the  Nanny of Hansel and Grettel


I am no princes, nor damsel in distress

But I was Cinderella’s bride’s maid

and the pure and beautiful princess

also took my breath away


My hair is not that long

But I know someone who does

Rapunzel is in my class

Shining in beauty and charm


Prince Charming is my cousin

still looking for the beauty

that sleeps somewhere

in a lost foreign tower


I am just an observer, a wacher,

a smile in the shadows of dreams

Just an ordinary and happy someone

with nothing to say other than

the beauty of someone else.
