FAIRY TALE, by BORRIES FREIHERR VON MUNCHHAUSEN Poet's Biography First Line: Radiant eyes and cheeks glowing bright Last Line: "again, papa, please, please, again!" | |||
Radiant eyes and cheeks glowing bright, In the sofa corners, one left and one right. And tightly clenched each little hand. "So the king's son left the forest-land With the princess, glad his way to wend, And now the story is at an end!" Two mournful sighs. Each mouth small and red Is closed a while in silence dead; Two sentimental voices then: "Again, Papa, please, please, again!" | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...MINE OWN LAND by BORRIES FREIHERR VON MUNCHHAUSEN NINON!
