Snow Inverted
Snow White! They called the girl with Snow White hair
And skin as dark as all her hair was fair
Her lips still red as rose, and smiling too
At everyone she met, and saw, and knew.
Though dark as shadow, she was hard to miss
With striking hair and lips you'd love to kiss
She gave out kindness from her open hand
Hum'rously called "fairest in the land."
Her wicked stepmom, in a jealous rage
Swore she would write down Snow White's final page
She sent a huntsmen out to kill Snow White
But he allowed the girl to take her flight
The queen, now blind with fury and with hate
Directly gave Snow White some lethal bait
And Snow, she took the apple from the witch
And threw that poisoned apple in a ditch
So Snow White with her long hair all aglow
Exhausted all the efforts of her foe
Her kindness was surpassed by her own smarts
And still she retained purity of heart
