Was She


Once upon a time...

A girl named Belle was thrown into a cell to save her father from his fate

The keeper was hairy and Belle wished upon a fairy to help her escape

The fairy was a trickster and turned the keeper into Belle's mister

The furniture sprang to life and the keeper took Belle as his wife

The keeper trimmed his hair and Belle couldn't help but stare

Her new husband was quite a catch

He was handsome and rich to boot, and the furniture served them food

Belle's father was invited and became quite excited

He had been worried sick

The keeper then told a secret, he had to kiss Belle quick!

If he didn't kiss Belle his hair would grow back, because of a spell

Belle kissed the keeper and he became even sweeter

Because the spell was broken.
