Once

Date: 3/3/2020

Once I’d seen a king and queen In a castle by the sea They said they’d give a room to live In exchange for a sugar pea But so was there a princess fair In this castle by the sea Who didn’t like the humble sight Of a commoner like me She was hellbent that I was sent Far from the castle by the sea But to her tower I’d lift the simple gift Of a gold-encrusted bee Amused she was at it’s music buzz In her tower by the sea So I could stay a room away And tell my tale to thee
