Done for the 2016 Month of Love challenge, “Fantasy”.
“Many little girls grow up with stories of sleeping princesses being woken by ‘True Love’s Kiss’ as one of our first introductions to romantic love. As an adult, I find some questionable undertones with that theme… (especially when you look at the original source material and discover it’s not just a kiss that wakes the sleeping beauty…) I decided to replace the prince with a swallow- symbolizing freedom and a return home after a voyage.”
