Once Upon a Time

Once Upon A Time Once upon a time there was a young boy He sent an orchid to a fresh young girl He wanted to break through the walls of troy The prize he won and he took his new pearl Running down the winding and leafy lanes Hand in hand laughing they both ran away Released now from so many locks and chains Happy they are for this magical day. Time and again they stop to hug and kiss Safe together in each others strong arms Relaxed knowing this is now their new bliss They fell for each others love and their charms. Youth is theirs, they see it, they beckon it Dreams and wishes of old are granted too Lives entwined forever, love them did hit This love that is so fresh, so good and new The bars are gone now, no restraints no pain Sight restored new vigour, youth regained Fantasy, magical, long may it reign Their lives now will be renewed and retrained Once upon a time, a time now long gone When Fantasy and magic ruled the world A fair maiden’s young waiting heart was won A strong young man trusted, and blonde-haired girl © 16/01/2013~GG Fantasy, Fantasy, Fantasy: Contest Entry.

This is very nice indeed. I think once upon a time will be tomorrow and the days after that, too.

This is a fabulous and a spectacular write my friend! I really enjoyed reading this delightful and enlightening poem this morning! What a fun loving fantasy this one is, I love how it moved through the fantasy only for it to end at some point and only memories of fantasy are left! Stupendous piece, Great Work!!
