Sleeping Dare
It was on a dare you see
to climb that wall
cut through the briars.
And that was just the beginning
The place was filled
with dust galore.
The young man had
allergies, you know.
But pride made him go
despite all the grit.
He made his way
to the top of that tower.
Just as his friends said
a girl lay asleep.
He gathered his courage
he took the leap.
A quick peck on her lips
that's all he could do
before he raced from the room
and away from her breath.
The princess woke up
startled of course.
Wouldn't you be?
If someone kissed you
On a dare?
