The Ogre and the Maiden

Ogre so hideous It stands firm As if sedated By her seductive charm This fiendish giant Of a fairy tale past Down in the sewer Is it one of their last Is it here for a reason Spawning new life Luring this maiden To it's ogreish strife With it's monster hand Her thigh it brushes Intake of air Her heart rushes For in her hand She grasps a red rose And holds it aloft In the ogres eyes, glows It metamorphoses Before her eyes The red rose lies dead The maiden cries She lifts her head In tear laid-en see A handsome man Stands in front of she This fairy tale ogre Had a hidden past Being spell bound and cast Not one of it's last They climb from the sewer Daylight is reached Hail the red rose Natures powers reach http://www.thehighlanderspoems.com/fantasy3.php
