Oooh, I love this. Such a creative poem, adore the fairytale aspect. It adds an element of fun to what would be a very serious piece.
You my friend are the literary master! Love ya~Holly

T this poem was really sad for me to read.....I do understand how your feeling. I particularly loved these two verses :

Hocus Pocus, you are suddenly gone
Choosing another path to follow
My search for love goes trudging along
This lump in my throat too big to swallow

Happily ever after the story book reads
True love is something that is earned
Wherever this tale endlessly leads
Today`s lesson was painfully learned

I thought they were so deep and meaningful and im sure the reader understands the message.

Take care, Lis

I think I understand the message, I am sorry to see you in pain Timothy, you write with such intensity, so much creativity, putting in fairy tale meanings, I absolutley adore this. Denise

Yes, those lessons usually are painful, and yet so many people never really learn.

Great work
