Once Upon A Time......Now

CHAIN LINE POEM 2

Once upon a time there lived a king
As he walked around his palace he loved to sing

so kind so noble harbouring heart without a wing

And then one day he met his match

A fragile mermaid's mesmeric beauty so agile to catch

The daughter of Neptune, Princess of the sea said to him kindly "Your Queen I will be"

As much as he wanted this vision fair, he thought, "Oh hell with a queen freedom will be rare"

Thinking thus he mounted his mare

Her heart in her eyes, she implored him to stay...from that he couldn't ride away

It happened so quick the mare on a wing, galloped the distance and threw lord and king

With tearful eyes, an imploring heart ,she gathered her love in her aching arms

His crown slipped as he held her tight, the mare looked away from the romantic sight

Her eyes behold the fallen crown with deadly images formulating his final drown

He could see his queen silently weep, just then his damn cellphone did beep

The ominous beeps groaned louder ,piercing the wickedness of the Beauty's heart

It was queen #1 from her beauty salon...asking him to stop by the grocer's on his way back home

The list was so big, caviar , pink champagne, nail polish, cold cream ! oh and some of that
  divine bathing  foam  !

The wicked brother at Love and kingdom saw his chance, and to the queen he did advance...

Little did the brother know of the king's clever ways,  a mean old great Dane !

treachery n blaspheme writ large on his face, the creep, creeps into the damsel's domain

The queen was more than willing...she had designs so evil...she smiled as she sped to him...
in her swanky convertible

But Neptune did stop her in her evil ire. He stuck up his triton and punctured her tire!

"Father, how could you!"  she screamed in distress "We had something going,
why couldn't you bless?"

The royal carousel goes round and round... who’s gonna be toppled and thrown on the ground?

The king, his mistress the brother and queen ...what are we doing on this funny scene??
