Snow White Prequel - Unfinished

Long, long ago, in the wintertime, when the snowflakes were falling like little white feathers from the sky, a beautiful Queen sat beside her window, which was framed in black ebony, and stitched. As she worked, she looked sometimes at the falling snow, wishing and hoping she had a daughter. She helplessly kept sitting next to the window everyday, begging a miracle to bring a daughter, a dear little child as white as the snow, as rosy as blood, and with hair as black as the ebony window frame. The queen was the most beautiful woman in all the land, and very proud of her beauty. She had a mirror, which she stood in front of every morning, and asked mirror, mirror, on the wall, Who in this land is fairest of all? The mirror always said you, my queen, are fairest of all. she knew for certain that no one in the world was more beautiful than her, but there was a young girl beyond the woods named Snow White. She matched the exact description of the queen and he was only five years old. Snow White was so beautiful, that she surpassed even the queen herself with her looks and her gorgeous smile. She lived in a little cottage outside the woods with her grandmother and grandfather. Her mother was lost in the woods two years ago and her father got murdered by a hunstman a few years before the mother.
