Prince Squared Off by Reagana The kingdom boasted of fortune and fame All except the girl with no name Simple thoughts, trivial dreams...Down to Earth No coin purse to judge her worth Others, with shiny gems and bars of gold While her unclothed feet on the ground so cold Sky still blue, birds still sang She, with only the occasional hunger pang When sought by the Prince, his bride to be No way out that she could see With sparkling gold and diamonds galore He led her, fish out of water, across the floor The King gave a grunt, the Queen, a gasp All of this nonsense, she could not grasp So much fidgets, squirming, and fuss But truly, nothing left to discuss The Prince squared off against the King Demanding his grandmother's ring When given the most perfect rose His love for her, right under her nose Happily ever after, the story is read No worry at all for her previous dread Lines ~ 22 |
