Rapunzel's Double Life

RAPUNZELS' DOUBLE LIFE - ONCE UPON A TIME Not so long ago A housewife named Rapunzel Lived in a modest bungalow A white picket fence contained it Flowers filled beautiful garden beds A swinging seat Rapunzel would sit Golden ringlets tied upon her head Daily she'd greet the postman And wave as the buses passed by She's sit and dream of a life beyond Questioning herself as to why? Why is it I don't have glamour Not even glitz or fame? Why is it my life seems dull With everyday just the same? Wanting to feel some excitement A reason to dress up real nice Rapunzel took to the city lights And soon was living a double life Rapunzel became known as a socialite Golden ringlets hung down low Mixing with all the rich and famous Glitz and glamour was all the go But then on one fateful day Rapunzels' hubby caught her out Her photo was in the social pages He demanded "What's this all about?" Rapunzel she was speachless Thinking of what to say "Oh Arthur darling that's not me That's my sister Madeline May" "Madeline May is in town for a month I'm sure I mentioned it to you She'll be busy mixing with the wealthy Getting to know who's who" Arthur replied "I must of forgot" And with that Rapunzel sighed She'd have to be much more careful Arthur couldn't find out she'd lied This double life Rapunzel lived It filled her with such delight Life had a sense of pure excitement Being just a housewife didn't seem right For years Rapunzel continued Socialising with only the best Presuming Arthur had no clue She had no reason to confess After a long and eventful day Rapunzel discovered Arthur had gone Finding a note it simply said 'You've lived a double life too long!' 04/02/2016
