Awesome challenge! I hope my words please you, my queen.
ReplyDeleteDrifting through the family mob,
avoiding questions about my job.
My relations won't back down.
I hate telling them I'm a circus clown.
Argh! Poetry!
ReplyDeletePlaying antics for the queen.
But what a dangerous biz it's said.
The final line in this scene:
Off with your head and then you're dead!
I can never resist a poetry challenge... Especially when there are limerick opportunities. :-)
ReplyDeleteA queen on a throne made of wood,
Ruled the kingdoms as best as she could,
She contracted a cough, and could no longer laugh,
And took tea like the wisest queen would.

But once I spied a maiden fair, with ebon locks and belt of gold,
ReplyDeleteand long I did for one dark hair, to plait unto a ring - but bold
'twould be for me to plead for royal womanhood's sweet inky strand
and so instead I am a loyal poet and for her I stand.

A queen now with a crown of tawny hair
ReplyDeleteAnd your eyes so wise and deep
But once you were my little princess fair
When as I child I tucked you in to sleep.
--Oma
The queen is green in garments so fair
ReplyDeleteSuch luscious lips and lovely long hair
To ask for a date would give her a scare
For I'm tall and hairy just like a bear.
Alas, I am late to these here games.
ReplyDeleteI have been away, in weather fair and foul.
But I would kneel before her, all the same,
To behold those emerald eyes set in that beautiful brow.
