Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair,

I want to climb up that glorious stair

And sail to the stars on your sunbeams of light;

Tell me you’ll let down your tresses tonight.

.

Rapunzel, Rapunzel, unwind your braids,

I want to capture their rich golden shades

And transfer their brilliance to heart’s dingy gloom;

Tell me you’ll lend me your triumphant bloom.

.

Rapunzel, Rapunzel, loosen your mane,

Rain me with sunshine, then douse me again;

Dying, your splendour will compost this earth,

Breeding renewal and spawning my birth.

    She’s certainly a beauty 🙂

      Maybe a haircut is in order? Or – if we wait long enough, there won’t be anything left to trim… 🙂

        It’s too pretty to cut.

        IT is. And once it’s on the ground, it shrivels away pretty quickly…

    WOW-Wonderful, 5-Star GOOD!

      I thought the Romantic just might go for this one… Can I call it, or what? 😉

    It’s amazing how long beautiful hair is so feminine and romantic. Wish I had me some! 😉

    1. melodylowes

      ME too! (Maybe not quite as long as Rapunzel’s, though….) 😉

    Love how you found the fairy tale in this image. I see it too 🙂

    1. melodylowes

      Yay! You must have 20/20 vision with those rose-coloured glasses of yours… 😉

    Golden leaves falling like hair…beautful! Rapunzel is one of my favourite childhood fairytale.

      Mine, too – I never was allowed to have long hair and have always been fascinated by the story of this girl locked away in a tower… Thank you!
