A Tale of a Princess

Once upon a day there was
A young princess like a bloomy vase 

A day a night and a year have passed
Waiting for this princess to be surpassed 

A day a night and a year have passed
With this princess being just a past

Her marvellous beauty was never perceived 
But once you meet her you feel relieved 

Her shining eyes were deep black holes
Attracting brains and even souls 

Her hair was strings of a wooden guitar
Or sectioned wires from a golden star.

All of this beauty went beyond sights
Deeper than valleys and higher that heights

To a world of awe and glory
Where our princess starts a new story

Between maids of equal splendour
And brave knights who do not easily surrender

Her wonder will stay as the eighth 
Of the seven wonders of human faith
