I Am No Princess

Not what i thought it was gonna turn out like...but i like it :D

I am no Princess...
  to call me such would be a insult.
I run around barefoot, and climb all sorts of trees...
  I've had chewed up fingernails, and scraped up knees.

I am no Princess...
  to say such a thing, would be a disgrace to the word.
I wear raggy old t-shirts, and torn up jeans...
  and I definatly know what hick town means.

I am no Princess...
  to say such a thing would be a lie.
I act like a dork, and act like I don't care.
  to say I am a princess, would be I a burden I could not bare.

I am no Princess...
  to say so would be fool hardy.
I do so wish my prince would come, and sweep me off my feet...
  but then I remember, my life right here and right now...well it just can't be beat.

Wow.. humorous and truth for me in here.. I am no princess or wallflower.. a tomboy growing up.. I can fix just about anything..lol.. break fingernails all the time and I don't even sweat it.. just a part of a hard day of work or fun.. and what confidence you exude.. sound happier on your own.. I can relate to that too.. Thank you for sharing!!! =)

A gal after my own heart! I recently sat down and tried to figure out just what I was doing to screw up relationships... and realized I hadn't defined what i wanted clearly enough. Now, i know that two of my most important criteria: "can dress up for a night at the theater, or down to work in the barn, doesn't mind me running barefoot and getting my hands and feet dirty" is closely followed by its important twin, "at least as dangerous as me".

and you know what? I have had no shortage of takers, LOL! Who needs a princess whining about a broken nail? Please! I've got frogs to catch, animals to treat, mountains to climb, and the world to save! let's go!

Thanks to Vesa for directing me here.

Cute. I can defiantly relate to this.
I didn't start wearing shirts 'til I was six. *laughs*
Growing up with a lot of brothers definitely influenced that and many other decisions. ^_^
Fun read.

hehe nice work ^^

Although you make it sound like being a princess is a good thing...do you really think it is? XD

Princesses live a downright s****y lifestyle from what i've heard, and they sure as hell wouldn't be able to put up with my lifestyle. Better to be whoever it is you are, live as you are supposed to. Well done individualism poem, keep up the good writing.
