The princess and the pea. [inverse---in verse ! ]
Was it really me ? THe princess and the pea ?
Wrapped in her silken cocoon of comfort
Fed on Royal jelly and somnabulist distraught
She sensitively popped pills for thyrocare
That would ensure nights without nightmare
Till the bio-clock rang in that five decade score
"Fifty is the new forty !" and skin rejuvenation cream
Have I woken or is life still a dream?
------------------------------------------------------
" Igrow old I grow old
I wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled "
Sorry T.S. I had to quote
Since in college I had learnt by rote
It fits ,it fits and I belong
To the masses {whom I hate ! ] to the throng
Wish I was Q. of Sheeba all along
But at least I am the princess and the pea
Daughter of darkness , was it really me ?
