Your landing isn’t terrible at all.

A

Q

A candy-coated cottage was there to break your fall.

A

Endlessly Ever After

Q

And when you search the wreckage, you find two more new friends, who - like the princess at your side- were facing grisly ends.

A

Endlessly Ever After

Q

Are you going to bring strangers along with you to Gran’s house?

A

Endlessly Ever After

Q

You scurry over to the path, but which way should you pick?

A

Endlessly Ever After

But since you’ve stopped, you think you’ll sit and take a tiny rest.

A

Endlessly Ever After

95
Q

You really shouldn’t have taken that nap.

A

Endlessly Ever After

Q

Now you’ve lost your way!

A

You’re not quite sure if this is death.

A

A

If you’re heading for heaven, you haven’t let just yet.

A

Endlessly Ever After

You hear some smacks, some cracks, some whacks!

A

Endlessly Ever After

Q

Are you ready to go home yet?

A

Endlessly Ever After

103
Q

You didn’t heed your mama.

A

Endlessly Ever After

104
Q

You wandered from the path, and so you’re dead - starting today!

A

Endlessly Ever After

105
Q

In front of you, a tunnel - a long, dark, winding hall.

A

Endlessly Ever After

106
Q

You see a light there at the end.

A

Endlessly Ever After

107
Q

It’s time to head along that path, to march on toward the light.

A

Endlessly Ever After

108
Q

You know you shouldn’t stray again.

A

Endlessly Ever After

109
Q

Because her voice sounds different.

A

Endlessly Ever After

110
Q

All breathy, hoarse, and low.

A

Endlessly Ever After

111
Q

Down deep inside, you long to hide.

A

Endlessly Ever After

112
Q

This story’s getting kind of odd.

A

Endlessly Ever After

113
Q

You think this kiss can wait.

A

Endlessly Ever After

114
Q

You’re much too young for kissing.

A

Endlessly Ever After

115
Q

You only just turned eight!

A

Endlessly Ever After

116
Q

And once beyond the castle walls, you find you’ve left your cake.

A

Endlessly Ever After

117
Q

But with each step you take…you wonder at that girl asleep, inside her walls of stone.

A

Endlessly Ever After

118
Q

And you will wonder all your days at what you might have done.

A

Endlessly Ever After

119
Q

You reach and grab a skillet, and hurl with all your might..

A

Endlessly Ever After

120
Q

He slinks away, brought low and meek, by your one angry blow.

A

Endlessly Ever After

121
Q

You’ve rescued YOU, all on your own.

A

Endlessly Ever After

122
Q

You’re both saved and saver.

A

Endlessly Ever After

123
Q

The moment that you charge the queen, she gives a wicked smile and hurls her potion at your feet.

A

Endlessly Ever After

124
Q

Strange smoke pours from the vial!

A

Endlessly Ever After

125
Q

You feel a cloud surround you, an awful evil breeze.

A

Endlessly Ever After

126
Q

A force descends upon your limbs, and all your muscles freeze.

A

Endlessly Ever After

127
Q

The room now smells like roses, but something darker too.

A

Endlessly Ever After

128
Q

Like stormy nights and lost goodbyes…as sleep envelopes you.

A

Endlessly Ever After

129
Q

You may have choices someday and further paths to tread, but they’re not in this story.

A

Endlessly Ever After

130
Q

You sleep as if you’re dead.

A

Endlessly Ever After

131
Q

The End (for now).

A

Endlessly Ever After

132
Q

You wander up a winding stair; you scamper past a throne, until you find a tiny room, where sleeping like a stone, a gentle maiden waits for you.

A

Endlessly Ever After

133
Q

Her eyes are sweetly shut.

A

Endlessly Ever After

134
Q

Her lips are waiting for a kiss.

A

Endlessly Ever After

135
Q

Kissing’s for teenagers.

A

Endlessly Ever After

136
Q

But as you near her cottage, a shadow hits the ground.

A

Endlessly Ever After

137
Q

I bet you’re headed where I am, the deep-woods jamboree?

A

Endlessly Ever After

138
Q

Why don’t you wander off the path?

A

Endlessly Ever After

139
Q

It’s time to end your story.

A

Endlessly Ever After

140
Q

You kissed the princess fair, who softly stirs and yawns at you through endless yards of hair.

A

Endlessly Ever After

141
Q

And sure enough, a woman waits behind you.

A

Endlessly Ever After

142
Q

You know you should be napping! the evil queen exclaims.

A

Endlessly Ever After

143
Q

She conjures up a potion, unstoppers it, and aims.

A

Endlessly Ever After

144
Q

That furry bully has no right to bother you this way.

A

Endlessly Ever After

145
Q

But you’ve a care for safety, and so you shed your hood.

A

Endlessly Ever After

146
Q

The smell of flowers fills the air, so fragrant and so sweet.

A

Endlessly Ever After

147
Q

But then you notice there’s a sound, a somber steady beat.

A

Endlessly Ever After

148
Q

You know your grandma’s waiting.

A

Endlessly Ever After

149
Q

The question is…which way?

A

Endlessly Ever After

150
Q

You run to punch him in the gut and grab him by the hair.

A

Endlessly Ever After

151
Q

I have to leave, or Mama will be miffed.

A

Endlessly Ever After

152
Q

But once you’re back upon the path, you hear an angry shout.

A

Endlessly Ever After

153
Q

Somewhere a boy is bellowing.

A

Endlessly Ever After

154
Q

But in your gut, you wonder what, and who, and how, and why?

A

Endlessly Ever After

155
Q

You track the shouts of rage and find them coming from a kid, a boy about your age.

A

Endlessly Ever After

156
Q

He’s also dripping wet and wears a frown and underpants.

A

Endlessly Ever After

157
Q

You blush until your face is red.

A

Endlessly Ever After

158
Q

Are you really going to hang around with this wet, pants less boy?

A

Endlessly Ever After

159
Q

A girl and boy inside a cage?

A

Endlessly Ever After

160
Q

She means to make kid stew!

You have to come, or else she’ll nosh you too!

A

Endlessly Ever After

162
Q

You’ll read a book instead.

A

Endlessly Ever After

163
Q

And after that you walk a ways; you climb a little hill.

A

Endlessly Ever After

164
Q

You spy your grandma’s cottage.

A

Endlessly Ever After

165
Q

It’s nice to rest a minute, to stop and think a bit.

A

Endlessly Ever After

166
Q

To see the world around you, and slowly ponder it.

A

Endlessly Ever After

167
Q

Until you spot a fluttering - a pale thing in the wood!

A

Endlessly Ever After

168
Q

And somewhere else below you, a man’s voice fills the air.

A

Endlessly Ever After

169
Q

A hunting we will go! he sings.

A

Endlessly Ever After

170
Q

(When “snarly-snaggle-dagger” is closer to the truth.)

A

Endlessly Ever After

171
Q

I’ve got a hunch that this will come in handy…when i eat you for lunch!!!

A

Endlessly Ever After

172
Q

At that she leaps and howls and tears the covers from her bed.

A

Endlessly Ever After

173
Q

This day has been too much for you, and so you turn to go.

A

Endlessly Ever After

174
Q

You stroll along the same old path.

A

Endlessly Ever After

175
Q

As evening falls, you notice folks all heading different ways.

A

Endlessly Ever After

176
Q

You watch them walk and wonder…what happened in their days?

A

Endlessly Ever After

177
Q

You know it’s nice to share your treats, and these guys seem so glum.

A

Endlessly Ever After

178
Q

But as you offer up the cake, you trip against the casket and stub your toe and stumble - and drop your picnic basket.

A

Endlessly Ever After

179
Q

When jostled by the cake, the girl for whom you’re mourning appears to give a shake.

A

Endlessly Ever After

180
Q

I thought that I was dead.

A

Endlessly Ever After

181
Q

So then the wake becomes a feast.

A

Endlessly Ever After

182
Q

The birds and deer demand to sing and prance and celebrate.

A

Endlessly Ever After

183
Q

How lucky that a hunter just happened by today!

A

Endlessly Ever After

184
Q

How lucky you were undigested when he passed your way.

A

Endlessly Ever After

185
Q

It’s lovely to be lucky, but better to BEWARE.

A

Endlessly Ever After

186
Q

From now on, when you wander - take heed.

A

Endlessly Ever After

187
Q

Endlessly Ever AfterYou duck and dodge, and just in time!

A

Endlessly Ever After

188
Q

But you think fast and trip her up - she stumbles on your shoe.

A

Endlessly Ever After

189
Q

The potion tumbles from he hand, and cinders filll the room.

A

Endlessly Ever After

190
Q

It smells like last year’s roses.

A

Endlessly Ever After

191
Q

So you head for the window and leap into the air.

A

Endlessly Ever After

192
Q

You’d like to pick another path, but fate awaits down there.

A

Endlessly Ever After

193
Q

You dash after the flutter and find it is the goose!

A

Endlessly Ever After

194
Q

But when you grasp her in your arms, she honks and wriggles loose.

A

Endlessly Ever After

195
Q

You’ve never chased a stolen goose before!

A

Endlessly Ever After

196
Q

Not only is it oversized - it’s also solid gold!

A

Endlessly Ever After

197
Q

As you head home, back on the path, you think about the day, so full of strange surprises and wonderful that way.

A

Endlessly Ever After

198
Q

With princess fingers clutched in yours, you squeeze your eyes so tight?

A

Endlessly Ever After

199
Q

And all the choices you have left?

A

Endlessly Ever After

200
Q

You do not get to pick your path when falling through the air.

A

Endlessly Ever After

201
Q

When gravity’s in charge, the only option is DOWN THERE.

A

Endlessly Ever After

202
Q

The porch is made of toffee.

A

Endlessly Ever After

203
Q

Instead, the walls are glazed with caramel and built of gingerbread.

A

Endlessly Ever After

204
Q

And…at last you try the knob and find it breaks off in your hand.

A

Endlessly Ever After

205
Q

In place of cake lost long ago you bring a gumdrop gift.

A

Endlessly Ever After

206
Q

But in that final moment, you bonk him, and - SURPRISE!

A

Endlessly Ever After

207
Q

In fact, he looks quite sweet, made all of fudge and candy floss - a giant doggy treat!

A

Endlessly Ever After

208
Q

She only had a goose to pluck, out back, behind the shed.

A

Endlessly Ever After

209
Q

You’ve got to know how fierce or fun or far that more might be.

A

Endlessly Ever After

210
Q

And as you wander off beneath a slowly sinking sun, you sense adventure down the path.

A

Endlessly Ever After

211
Q

But whether you adventure far or sit alone or snooze, the thing you must remember is that every day…you choose.
