The forest floor is strewn
with high-heeled shoes, for we
rebel princesses have shucked
our crowns and chucked
our corsets and ditched
the bibbidi-bobbidi
(boo)
ball
in favor of
gentler things:
mirror ponds
(fairest of them all)
,
fiery dragon dances
and fairy
wings.

I got my haircut last night and had “fairy hair” put in as small tinsel extensions. it isn’t much but I feel the fairytale within my stressful, busy, chaotic days.
This one spoke to me. I love those high heels but need to leave them behind on the 10,000 step days. 😉
Kir, I bet that looks AMAZING! 🙂
I loathe high heels and have left them far behind, long ago. Heeled boots are as close as I get these days.
All I can say is — Salagadoola mechicka boola… I liked this De! 🙂
Thanks you so much, Rob.
(Also wondering if you knew how to spell that, or had to look it up. 😉 I had to look up bibbidi bobbidi boo.
“in favor of

mirror ponds”
Sigh. How beautiful—just the idea of it. Isn’t an enchanted forest the dreamiest thing?
I also love the notion of sacred whims.
Is there anything more sacred than a whim?
I love this De specially this part:
in favor of
gentler things:
ah the forest! that can draw me from the castle
De, this is so light and airy and playful- I love it!
Haha! Very hood! I love forests, and those wonderfully little tales. Well done, such fun..
O yes to mirror ponds of whatever feeling, my response was back to early years and making fairy gardens in school with a mirror pond, gentler days.
Love the rebel princesses shucking and chucking and choosing gentler tales.
“our crowns and chucked/our corsets and ditched/the bibbidi-bobbidi (boo) ball in favor of
gentler things,”.. sigh I absolutely love, love this! 😀 You rocked the prompt! 💝💝
Oh,.. I love this… how amazing to find those shoes and know that there are those who ditched them for the gentler things.
