The fairest of fairytales
Gather round the fire you boys and girls
For I shall speak of the fairest of fairytales
About a young maiden, graceful and fair
Who just like Repunsal had long flowing hair
But this is a tale of the maidens despair
And about a brave knight who had no one to share
For this Maiden, Princess Tina was her name
Was kept by an Ogre in a tower of sorrow and pain
He had no eye for beauty only for hate
And he kept her in solitude, an unnatural fate
Her eyes were all sore for crying so much
And her heart so weary for in need of a touch
Her cries went unanswered and her hopes soon did fade
As alone in her tower, she silently prayed
She wished for a knight brave and so strong
Who would rescue her from this torturous wrong?
In a city of iron and brick laden huts
Where streets were full of lepers and ill-fated sluts
Lived a knight whose adventurers were weary and old
And like the Northern Mountains, had a heart that was cold
But this was a myth for his heart breathed like a dragons fire
And within his belly roared so much love and desire
He had just one more quest, one more adventure within
In an inn drinking his mead, he found his true calling
Across from the table were he did sat
He overheard some general chit chat
About a fair maiden that was locked away
In a tower, in a place, not too far away
With hearing this news, the knight quickly got to his feet
And without a moments pause headed to the land of Byfleet
On his pale horse, he galloped for over an hour
Until he came over the hills and was in view of the tower
As darkness approached and the sun did set in the West
He strapped his armour plate firm to his chest
His lance now raised and his shield carried a high
He set forth to the tower before the moon hit the sky
The tower stretched up to the heavens above
But he smashed down the door with a kick and a shove
The ogre awoke, startled and alarmed
And picked up his mace, he was now angry and armed
He stamped down the stone stairs to the knight below
But was caught un a guard, with a swing and a blow
The knights' sword swung down with a powerful force
And knocked the Ogre totally off course
He fell down the stairs, smashing his head
And when he finally stopped, he was lifeless and dead
The knight rushed up the steps to the maiden in captivity
And smashed through the door and went down on one knee
Swearing allegiance to the princess and that his sword was his
And within the tower that was her prison, she gave him a kiss
He pulled from his bag, some lotion for her eyes
And then pulled out a diamond which took her by surprise
She accepted his gifts and his love and his bravery
And said “It is I who should reward you, for it you that has saved me”
The knight picked her up in his arms and fled out the towers gate
And as they rode back to safety he said “repay me with a date”
How could she refuse his charm and charisma?
And when she agreed he lent over and kissed her
Now I bet you're wondering what happened to them?
Well that story children, is for when you are men!
