Princesses, Puppy dogs, and Rag Dolls

Greater than the magic of fairytales
Is a simpler
More beautiful enchantment
When once upon a time
Comes with every sunrise

Here’s a realm
Where every little girl
Is a princess
Holding court
Over puppy dogs
And rag dolls

With her maids
And maidens
Explores a wonderland
Of salt spray
Sea shells
And hermit crabs

While the ocean
Stretches out
Beyond the horizon
Of imagination
Beckoning
