Rhonda Johnson-Saunders Poet Verse

The Strength of a Princess

Dreams rise from pink sheets when a twinkling night falls.
As moon petals bloom, imagination calls.
In fairy tales told from a medieval town,        
a beautiful princess dons her sparkling gown 
and adorns flaxen hair with an ornate crown.
She then sheaths her sharp sword and scales castle walls.
Her prince gives a kiss as the fierce dragon falls.
