Sarah

Princesses wear dresses and curl up their hair.

I read all these stories with slippers of glass.

An apple of red

A dress that changes colors with the wave of a hand

I see that my name means Princess, but more.

I see that it means I am strong with power and soul

That not an evil queen

Or a witch of the sea

Can take my voice or make me fall asleep.

I’m supposed to be all nice and sweet,

But even a princess named Sarah can get dirty feet…
