Dress For Success

The princess had everything but wanted a certain dress "Please King daddy, if I get it I'll sing!" Poor Gem, stitched every stitch perfect, including the hem. In school she had mastered every single sewing tool. With intelligence, she spoke to the king with confidence. If blessed by your Grace she'll surely be dressed. With strength he said "Anything, now adjust the length!" A retreat awarded, she bowed thankfully at his feet. Lovely light, emanated from a princess clothed just right. For Rose's "Plucky Two by Nine Contest."

Great entry for Rose's contest. Cute little story, and love the king thinking like a father and wanting the hem adjusted!
