Robin, I have to say thank you. Once again you made writing fun. This is poem # 1 out of 5 that you gave me the ideas for. :o)
ONCE UPON A FAIRYTALE GONE WRONG
Prince Notaman rode to the castle
On a white steed one hot summer’s day
Singing songs about love everlasting
And carrying a red rose bouquet.
When he spotted the fair maiden waiting
He dramatically flung out his hand
“Come with me, my love,” he bellowed,
“I have a beautiful future planned.”
But alas, the poor fellow heard nothing
Til he met with a shocking surprise…
A ruckus arose, and as he peered down
He was greeted by eight beady eyes.
“Nice squirrels,” the poor fool whimpered,
As he attempted to flee from his spot,
But the furry beasts soon overtook him
And tied up his arms in a knot.
Furry tails gave him a lashing
Then an oar knocked him into a boat,
They squeaked, “Not a word, you lying buffoon,
Or we’ll throw your big butt in the moat!”
Prince Notaman looked desperately ‘round him
Faced the truth that his future seemed grim,
He shrugged and quietly said to himself,
“It’s quite a nice day for a swim.”
