Such was time, a record-breaking passage When you were forever, my endless mate, A sleeping rose wrestling against ill fate Touching a hag’s needle in an era of rage. Yet I sought you, enmeshed in feisty strains Bound helpless by a a mad witch of charade, Till lightened journey began to slowly fade As my beard grew longer from your remains. Once Upon A Time Contest of Laura Loo 2/6/2016

I can imagine an arthritic, toothless old prince still searching for a comatose sleeper. Funny, imaginative poem---Disney must pay you for this story!
