Whilst wondering about a small fair town
In November leaves and draped with white gown
A youth of sweet content and happily placed
Dripped and tinted in long lovely lace
No hint of true distaste
Upon her heavenly face
And whilst wondering through the town
A prince came beholding a crown
But richest were not in her interest
She’d rather a big heart of no distress
The prince never gave up coming again with complements sweet.
But flattery had no impact
She’d rather an honest act, true and concrete
Another try; but his last
He offered the girl a castle wide and vast
But again he came to defeat
For the girl preferred a home cozy and neat
So, at last issuing failure the prince returned to his riches
And the girl left alone and contented without wishes
Remember this story, for the girl left happily poor
Pleased with her life of freedom, no more
And so showed she knew life was about what was kind
And not about money, thick and blind
