★The Giant's Gift..★

Waiting from dawn to dusk,
Scented with rose and dusk..

She gazes at the freefalling beauties with stupor,
Her glittering tiara in the middle of golden locks...
She pouts as she glances at the grandfather clock...

Pacing up and down restlessly,
Eyes burning with unshed tears...
Fire blazing in her warm room..

Let down by the Giant's word...
She thinks "He said- he would be there"
Throwing herself in the shabby bed,
Hugging her ruined pillows with shaking hands..

Hearing the hooves of a cart...
Blood races from her pounding heart...

Running to her door in fevered anticipation,
Looking at his giant form; she is filled with elation..

Gazing back to his massive wagon..
She gapes her mouth open...

There infront of her blue sight,is a princess's lovely bed;
With pink fluffy cusiohs and blankets,covered with exquisite net...

Snow flakes dance between them..
She holds his warm hands...
Asking " why were you so late??"
He answers "Delay,is not denied my chocolate!!"

After waving him a silent goodbye..
Tired with the revelry of the night...
She curls in her bed with a contented sigh...!

[Shannon April Alice]

so sweet and wonderfully visual, can almost see, hear him approach. lovely! curious if 'scented with rose and musk' was ever a consideration or did it seem to rhyming? either way i loved it. truly loved it.

[Sophy Freebirds]

Aww.. thank you so much :) it was aethereal's suggestion.. my version was a bit different :)

If you kiss enough frogs one may turn into a prince, so a little patience is a virtue !

A captivating, romantic, fairytale Sophy, penned with imaginative flare, splendid indeed!

[Sophy Freebirds]

Aww... so sweet of you Tom.. thank you so much :)

[The Rock And Roll Cowbo..]

I could take this in a romantic way or in a naughty way,,, but either way I like it very much.

[Sophy Freebirds]

Awww.. its preachy.. thank you cowboy ;)

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

You are very welcome.

Isn't "Delay is not denied" a play on words here? He filled his "Chocolate" with content after all was elegantly said and done. Perhaps to keep the first two lines in meter:

Waiting from dawn to dusk,
scented with rose and musk…

Yes it is.. :) thanks for the review aethereal.. i will work on the suggestion.. but i guess they will be quite go-means they might become meaningless. So i didn't use it that way.thanks for the suggestion though though :)
