A fair(y) Tale

Something for my kids or the kids in all of us.

Long Ago in Utopia
In a country full of Myopia
Without Rhyme or Reason
There was treason

Now the patriot who led the revolt
Truly was in default
Cause he saw the world through sepia
And that was bad for Utopia

At last there came a man with much love
For he did keep a lots of dove
Again unfortunately for Utopia
The king kept a cornucopia
Of cut-throat ministers
Who were all very sinister
Who in their dens
Played with lives of men

They public opinion swayed
And made the king dismayed
The king thought I must
Control the ministers’ lust

Against all odds the king deified
And had the ministers tied
He proclaimed that they had sunk low
And they must be let go
That they be cut down
In front of the whole town

So then the evil hearts would hear
And for their very lives fear
Men such as these do like to save
Themselves from an early grave
The evil doers vanished
They knew they were finished

Folks all could not hide their pleasure
At their king’s hard measure
The country now had laws fair and free
The new courtiers followed them loyally
So utopia was once again holy
The people danced in glory
And that’s the end of my Story
