Be A Princess (a poem for anyone that needs it)

BE A PRINCESS

When you’re feelin’ the blues, stuffing your face with chips

And you’re worried that your waist measures the same as your hips

And while doing the dishes your mani chips and peels

And you could scour pots and pans with your heels

BE A PRINCESS

When your house is in total and complete disarray

When you’re children are fighting more than they play

When your husband forgets your anniversary once more

And at times your life just seems a chore.

BE A PRINCESS

When the dog poops - again - on your favorite rug

When your pants won’t go on without a firm tug

When your eyes have bags and gray streaks your hair

And you wonder if he notices the new dress that you wear

BE A PRINCESS

So today tell everyone who needs something - NOW!

To slay their own dragons cause you're tweezing your brows

Then you're soaking in bubbles, and painting your toes,

And buying impractical shoes and treating yourself to a show.

BECAUSE YOU ARE A PRINCESS

Just for today.
