Oh Princess Kendra Rae

Came down the road today

She blessed us one by one

And didn't stop until she was done



Oh why did she go to such a hassle?

Oh why did she leave that pretty castle?

Man... I don't know what to say

But she came down the road today



Oh Princess Kendra Rae

Smiled and winked my way

I smiled and winked right back

As she walked on down the track



Oh what is a girl like her doing here?

Oh what would I say if she came near?

Well... I got my chance today

When she smiled and winked my way



I said, "Pretty little princess"

"Smart and strong"

"With your head held high"

"You can do no wrong"



Oh Princess Kendra Rae

Oh she made my day today

And everybody in our little town

Won't forget the day that she came down

This work is just so cool. And having met "Princes" Kendra I see what you mean, although I can't say I agree with it all...do no wrong...hmmmm. Anyway, as I read this poem, I keep picturing the street you live on, seeing an entourage leading her past the row of trees at the edge of your lawn and people hanging out by the swing set. It's a bizarre image and loses something.

This would be perfect for a "Mother Goose" style book.
Good job.
