The Princess Diaries
My granddaughter Charlotte e-mailed:
"I love you, Nanny, and can I have a poem about princesses?"
Away in some enchanted land
Where every day was Spring,
There lived two fair princesses –
Twin daughters of the King.
They grew in grace and beauty,
And when they reached eighteen
The King said, “I’ll throw them a ball!
The grandest ever seen!”
The guests were all astounded
At the splendour of the dance:
And when they saw the birthday girls,
They all gazed, quite entranced.
Enter their Fairy Godmother!
Said she, “I’ll grant them each a wish …”
But Amy did not care to touch
Stuff that’s green and rather dampish …
Now Charlotte’s happy with her Prince,
Three children and their dog …
But Amy’s sad and lonely …
Well, she wouldn’t kiss her frog!
