My life is a fairy tale. You could not make it up.

Every man's life is a fairy tale written by God's fingers.

Life itself is the most wonderful fairy tale.

The peach siding created a gorgeous contrast to the stucco walls and the dark-brown roof tiles—a fairytale house in a fairytale suburban neighborhood. She rolled her eyes. Too bad life had been anything but.

ah, life—
the thing
that happens
to us
while we’re off
somewhere else
blowing on
dandelions
& wishing
ourselves into
the pages of
our favorite
fairy tales.

Seeing my parents makes me realise that life is not a fairy tale.
