cracks form over the walls of the shaking building at the top,
the pulsing thuds from under keep coming and never a sign to stop,
everything not tied down rattles with the sounds of bells,
as from under the castle the big beast dwells,
roars of power echo over the halls,
as the young princess peeks around noticing its calls,
the king sees her and quickly leads her away from this beast,
he tells her of its capture in the valley to the east,
back in her room she sits on the bed,
with the king smiling as she straightens the crown on his head,
before she goes back to sleep she says words that fill his mind,
'when will the babys mother come?' she tells him from behind,
"what makes you think its a baby?" he wonders about her thought,
"it cries, its a baby." she tells him as he realizes what he brought,
another scream heard from outside the walls of the castle keep,
waking everyone up from their slightly disturbed sleep,
the mother has arrived with all knights swallowing,
as the calls from its baby from far she was following.
