 Once upon a fairytale now become this poetic story There lived somewhere a lady fair who dreamed of love’s true glory She lived in a darkened stone castle built so bleak and tall Waiting for her knight to come to climb up fortress wall Upon countless months of wistful moon so golden glow and bright She stood holding out a candle, watching for him each night Gazing out so dreamily into the misty, dusk and dark As each night she made a wish upon each new falling star As story’s told, many a man came and went, as time began to pass Yet, all so lacked in courage that naught even a one could last Sought she; knight of strength and boldness such a challenge to be climbed The treasure of this damsel’s love, this knight would surely find Upon changing of the seasons, .the princess knelt and prayed As she kept her love light burning to guide the knight, his way Now,upon one brisk Spring morning bright and shining was the sun Forth walking on the forest path there appeared, a knight, just one Fearless of this formidable castle and the tower that he viewed Queried a shout, he calling out "Will your love be forever true?" She cast to him her promised word that fell to him on ground He knew this was his true love now, destined to be found Gripping tightly, cold,jagged stones superior in height He vowed to claim his glory as he took each step to flight Enduring to beat the struggle now of his grueling quest Awaiting him a tender place for his weary heart to rest The challenge now, conquered she knew her prince, he'd be There, stood his lovely princess, so beautiful to see Not just of looks or comely shape but her golden heart so fair And as they embraced, he whispered I've looked for You everywhere While this is just a fanciful tale written from a poet, just for you Anyone can tell a fairytale but destiny makes real dreams come true. Keep Dreamin’.......... Poetry is: Passion, imagination and intellect running together.

CSK, this is so beautiful. I believe fairy tales can and do come true. But most times we don't wait long enough to find the real happiness we seek and take what is handy. Good work, ME |
