This Fairy Tale Poem actually IS my idea
Once upon a time in a land not too far away
The princess bore a daughter on a beautiful spring day
They named her Pearl for she was their joy
The whole kingdom rejoiced and didn't care that she wasn't a boy
Sadly the Princess who bore the baby died
The prince was heartbroken inside
But he had to be strong for his baby girl
The only bright spot in his life, his little Pearl
His upbringing taught him to have a stiff upper lip
But whenever he was with Pearl that would slip
He would feed her, change her rock her too
At night he would tell her, "Baby I love you"
The years passed quickly by and Pearl was a child
She was filled with laughter and beautiful smiles
At four when they were out one day around two
She hugged her dad and said "I love you"
He hugged her back with tender care
The people jeered and they did stare
"What are you doing," one man asked who held a mike
The prince replied, "What does it look like"
"Showing affection in public what a thing to do," tasked a lady
"Lady," the prince said, "this is my baby"
"And she should learn not to be like this," a woman crooned
"HEAVEN FORBID IT," the prince sarcastically groaned
"My child," he continued without a scare
"Will grow up knowing love everywhere
"I don't have to hide it. I'm not ashamed
"I love my daughter everywhere everyday"
