Rapunzel's Dilemma












(Rapunzel)

Trapped in a dungeon tall
High above the world
Amidst no souls at all
She sat and wept
...at fate inept
And then she wondered where he was.


And as she sat across the wall
Lost in thoughts
And eyes squeezed small
Her heart was swept
...with feelings that leapt
And then she wondered where he was.


In cold winters when evenings fall
When hearts freeze
Around a fiery ball
She often slept
...with whimpers that crept
And then she wondered where he was.


"Rapunzel! Rapunzel!", she heard him call
"Lower your hair,
Across the wall"
That voice adept
Had promises she kept...
...But then she wondered who he was.

1. More 100F fever stuff. Love to be on fire!
2. I loved the rhyme so much that I had to write an encore with an alternate view. Of course I blank out in the end. Not my territory!!!
3. Lots of allegory too. So many Rapunzel's, so many princes...and so many dungeons :)
