Sleeping Beauty


 


Spinster I have and always will be


Pricked mine finger and now sleep for all eternity


Who will be that Prince Charming who can awaken me


With just one tiny kiss, can’t anyone see?


 


I’m trapped behind this thorny wall of


Endless slumber filled with nightmares


Is there not anyone who can set me free?


Please!  I beg of thee, to chop down


These branches full of thorns and


Set my spirit soaring to the heavens above


Wake this Sleeping Beauty before


Time runs out …


Is there not one brave soul who can set me free?


 


(c) 2003 A Riddle
