Snow White and the seven dwarfs - the meeting of a kind (part 3)


At dusk seven tiny men arrived,
And opened the door to a surprise,
Sitting on the table hot bowl of soup for each,
And the house was spic span clean.

Wondered they how this came to be,
Puzzled and dazzled they looked with glee.
Took the flight upstairs to see,
A peaceful snow white falling asleep.

Tiny footsteps broke her sleep,
Snow white ran behind the curtain and peeped.
Dwarfs stood silent as a hill,
Snow white sat on the window sill.

Wise and old dwarf questioned her,
"Who are you my child?
Why are you here?
Snow white answered," snow white my name.
I'm lost and have no where to go.
Came across your cottage, so beautiful and quite.
I couldn't resist stepping inside"

" Let me stay with you all here,
I shall cook and clean while you work"
The dwarfs pondered for a while,
Took a look into her deep blue eyes,
They couldn't resist saying yes,
And disappoint the pretty lady guest.
Their faces beamed with smile,
Snow white stayed with them for a very long time.

Into the light

I stand alone,
In a pitch dark room.
Try hard to see,
With whom.

I feel a presence,
But still there is an absence.
I try to reach out,
But none I sought.

A shadow passes me by,
I try to catch an image with my eye.
Pitch dark room beats me,
But a touch I can see.

I call out to the soul,
and hear a small moan.
I call out to come to me,
Says I can't, its just meant to be.

I ask why is it so,
I'm just a guardian angel;
To watch me safely go,
Into the light at the end of the room,
A new beginning..a life renewed..
