Dorothy, short, sweet and to the point. Where have all the fairy godmothers gone? I don't think they allotted me one. If they did she lost her way. Lovely little poem. Thanks for sharing it. David

Delightful reading. Once upon a time does envisage bedtime, but this ends up to be a wake up call.

You have this talent for deriving the maximum output from minimum input. It's real magic at work.

Dorothy-Excellent poem, done with eclat! The tears come at night, don't they? I really loved this one. kate

It seems, Just Once..... brought too many a tear. What you have expressed in these few words is simply remarkable.

Cute little poem with a poignant question. I like it. However, one of the UPON words has an extra P.
