Cinderella The prince leans to the girl in scarlet heels, Her green eyes slant, hair flaring in a fan Of silver as the rondo slows; now reels Begin on tilted violins to span The whole revolving tall glass palace hall Where guests slide gliding into light like wine; Rose candles flicker on the lilac wall Reflecting in a million flagons' shine, And glided couples all in whirling trance Follow holiday revel begun long since, Until near twelve the strange girl all at once Guilt-stricken halts, pales, clings to the prince As amid the hectic music and cocktail talk She hears the caustic ticking of the clock. Sylvia Plath
Slyvia Plath was an American poet, novelist, childrens' author, and short-story author. Sylivia was a perfectionist and that came through in her writings. She also tried to kill herself earlier in her life and that caused her poems to become deeper and more powerful. She later killed herself when she was 30 years old.
Cinderella by Sylvia Plath
*Simile: ''Where guest slide gliding into light like wine.'' *End Rhyme is used throughout some of the poem. *The poem is mainly written in free verse. *Sensory Imagery is used throughout the whole poem to describe the ball room and what is happening.
The dream that you wish will come true.
