Meeting a Prince

Royalty came to visit today,
a fine, fat prince in a disguise.
What legs he had! What strength!
To see him leap all the way
from here to there, a length
twenty times the length of his body,
was enough to make me laugh
and applaud. He smiled at that
and winked his eye. But still,
I couldn’t bring myself to kiss him.
So he just leaped away.
