A modern fairy tale and fantasy 


Button by M.A.Meddings

I found a tiny button
A pretty little thing
And I placed it where It would be safe 
Within my heart to sing
And day after day I held it close
That it would cheer me In  my joy 
I cherished it just like a flower 
my tenderness to pIoy
And as I held it in my hand 
A transformation was taking place
Instead of base mother of pearl
Came a lady fair of face
She smiled on me and thus declared
I am the lady of the button dear knight 
And yours  what wilst thou call me
Please declare my plight
I thought awhile as i watched her dance 
Delightedly before me 
And if I could have searched a lifetime more
There was non that could implore thee  
For the brightness of her eyes became
her soft and gentle kiss
And the cuteness of her button nose  
Declared her name as this  
Dancing lady henceforth shall
This knight Just gently yours be
And for the promise  of your kiss
He will Simply will just call ye 
His treasured
Button

aww...that's cute! Everyone needa a knight errant to hold the key to their heart...and every knight should have a button, just to keep him grounded, give him something to make fighting dragons worthwhile.

Michael I love this fantasy. It is the most sweet, endearing, enchanting story written in poetry I have read. This is my favorite. I can see all this unfolding before me as I read each line. And, I became lost in the beauty of this love. Lovely xxx
