Come dream with me and I swear
I will build a world and take you there.
You will be Queen and I'll be King
Flowers will grow and birds will sing
What so ever you desire
Of me you need only require
I will be at your command
Come Fair Lady, take my hand
Come travel roads with moss so soft
You will spring o'er stones and float aloft
And when you've need of aught to eat
Doves will lay it at your feet
Your clothes will be beyond compare
Bright like sunshine, soft like air
You will have no need for shoes
But you may have shoes if you choose
Your unicorn will stay by you
and bless each little thing you do
Your dragon with its roar and scales
will show you fair and hidden trails
And when the sun has fully set
you will find the best thing yet
In our castle, on our throne
we will be our very own.
Come Fair Lady, dream with me
Float away and be so free
There is no need that you be bound
By custom, fortune, fate or ground.
Come my Lady, let's take flight
Up toward the moon, into the night.
While we're at it, what the heck,
Let me bite you on the neck.

Outstanding
This starts as a wonderful fairy tale and ends on a dark note. I thought the rhyme and meter were strong throughout and I liked the images you chose to bring the fantasy to life. Congratulations on the trophy.

This was a devilish little piece that had me smiling at the end. Vampires always promise the world....for a price. Excellent poem with great rhythm, rhyme, and flow and with such bounce. The last line certainly did turn the whole tale from one of fairy queeens and princesses to something quite dark. I could picture it and yep...I laughed. Congrats on the honourable win.

That's a great piece of work and I must say the last line gave a good chuckle a fine note to end on. Happy trails.

Aw. No fair!
“There is no need that you be bound
By custom, fortune, fate or ground.”
I’m liking it, Then
“While we're at it, what the heck,
Let me bite you on the neck.”
True to life, there was a REALLY BIG string attached.

Well written, well rhymed, nice twist.
Thanks.

"Come my Lady, let's take flight
Up toward the moon, into the night.
While we're at it, what the heck,

Ha, what a nice little trick he pulled off there. Funny at the end and a bit twisted. Making it seem like things will be alright but turning out to be a vampire.
