Dressed in fine
layers of ivory silk
She did delicately
step with a sway.
They had met for a
picnic on the local green
On that cloudless
Mid-summer's day.
There 'neath the
shade of the tall willow tree
His love for her
he did proudly confess -
There he proposed
in a tone so soft and low
To his charming
and sweet young Princess.
She took a step
back - hung her head low
And was just on
the verge of reply
When who should
appear but a handsome young man
Who just happened
to be riding by!
He looked at the
food spread out on that rug
Said - "That food
does exceed a Knight's pay!"
But 'cos his voice
it was so mellow and kind
They they invited
that young man to stay!
So - the three of
them sat to partake of fine wine
Whilst they
munched on some salmon and cress!
Imagine the look
on the face of those men
When the Princess
let out a sigh -
Threw back her
head - and
Screamed "Y- E-
SSSSSSSS!!"
