a poetic holiday #5...
We just returned from seeing "Enchanted",
where romantic love is severely slanted.
Fantasy and reality merge,
parts of the show almost made me purge.
I think the best part of watching this show,
was watching my girls cute faces aglow.
Staring at them as they stare at the flick
is something that you cannot beat with a stick.
There faces light up when the characters kiss,
I cover their eyes, but they wouldn't miss.
They fight off my hands and lean to the side,
taking in romance one frame at a time.
There's always the witch and the sinister dragon,
I might as well cart Aly out in a wagon.
She moves from her seat and onto my knee,
Strugglin' like a perfectionist getting a "B".
Tears start to form in her sky blue eyes,
you can tell that she's fighting interior lies.
But tonight she responded with much less drama,
she didn't freak out and ball for her mamma.
She curled up into my "lazy boy lap",
and didn't fall into the "phobia trap".
We had a great time taking in a good movie,
this holiday season has been really groovy.
