Fantasy

I was going through my jewelry box today and came across a little gold locket I hadn't worn since I was a little girl.... It brought back old memories and when I put it on I felt myself transform...

It started with a book
she carried it wherever she went
and in the book was a girl
who wished she was a princess
fiction never seemed so real
You know, dolls make the very best friends. Just because they can't speak doesn't mean they don't listen. And did you know that when we leave them alone in our room, they come to life?-Captain Crewe


Magic has to be believed. That's the only way it's real.-Captain Crewe
I am a princess. All girls are. Even if they live in tiny, old attics; even if they dress in rags; even if they aren't pretty, or smart, or young. They're still princesses. All of us. Didn't you father ever tell you that? Didn't he? -Sara

It ended with a book

she put her hopes in a golden locket

so she could have them wherever she went

Happy Thursday,

Sarah

  1. ahh little princess, such a great story!
    I love finding old jewelry that you wore in elementary school. There is just something lovely in knowing that it's been in your life for all those years.
