When your little you believe that all the fairytales are true,
That when you get older a handsome prince is going to marry you.
You will live in a palace with a huge closet filled with every kind of dress,
No one could tell you different because you wouldn’t believe any less.

There is nothing wrong with fairy-tales or dreaming of a utopia oblivious of harsh realities of life. The poem has put across the paradox quite beautifully in the concluding lines: So what if the world isn’t always filled with joy and laughter, That doesn’t mean that you can’t still have your happily ever after.
When your little you believe that all the fairytales are true, That when you get older a handsome prince is going to marry you.the power of imagination which leads us to think, imagine and wish. beautiful poem. tony
This is a nicely crafted poem with the reality of life that we face when we get older. the fairy tale of the childhood has nothing to do with moment to moment struggles of life. As we come in contact with different types of people the true color of life unfolds. But the poem ends in a positive note. That we have to go on living. Enjoying the trivialities of life. Thanks very much and Congrats.
Fairytale there has thrilling, adventurous mood without any harm, dreamy everything and every moment automatically but the life is not like that. Prince and princess is not the easy processing rank here. Beautiful poem penned. Congrats for being selected this poem as POD

A magnificent poem with perfumed poetic expression! I congratulate you for this fabulous poem being selected as Poem of the Day!
Leave alone dreams one bases on in the design of one's entire life, how many were able to remodel even a wee bit of it, fairytale way? A realistic view on life on earth. Congrats on your positioning. Thanks for sharing an awesome poem with us. x
Really a witty reflection on life written with clarity of thought and mind. An insightful motivational piece of poetry. Thanks for sharing, Brooke.
(2) As I said your poem Fairytale is a fascinating one and beautifully worded. A 10++++++++++++++ for Vote/rating. Absolutely, (I cite your concluding line) : That doesn’t mean that you can’t still have your happily ever after. You still can get it, your happily everafter (one word) . I have mine, Brooke. CONGRATULATIONS for the MPOTD. Hurray!
A loveliest poem, most gorgeously rendered and fascinatingly worded. Just bit mistakes: first line must be When you're little and not When your little, the first is a verb and in the line you wrote, that is a possessive Noun, In line seven(7) must be The dressed girls and not The dresses girls. But being POTD YOU so deserved, Brooke. (2)
'dresses' in the seventh line is okay in the context of the meaning the line conveys. 'your' in the second line is of course a mistake in the written context, although it is accepted colloquially.
Magnificent poem, Brooke.., such a lovely write and definitely so deserving of the honor of poem of the day. You certainly made my day. You are so right in your message. I believe in Fairytales and I believe in the happily ever after. I'm still waiting for mine and enjoying the climb.
Awesome write, beautifully written, words cannot describe its appeal. Thank you for sharing this verse.
Honest and wonderful words. Outstanding words and thoughts shared. Few happy endings,
.Life is hard but in the end what you regret most is the chances you didn’t take. True. Congratulations being POD
A great life song with shattering of fairy tale perceptions of a child while growing at the same time pointing out that that one is responsible for making life happy and worth living. Congrats on poem of the Day.
A beautiful poem written from the heart. Great comments too especially Aqua and Parmeswaran.
