A Natural History of My Princess Bedroom
Ceiling Sculpture in Princess Anne's Bedroom
A Natural History of My Princess Bedroom
much imperial drama and subsidy
to aggrandize the flashy feel
of a royal bedroom
curtains the color of the sky
ballroom sized
fluer de lys habitat
den of decadent fashion
museum it is not
splendidly exposed, prestigiously lavish
spirit of crystal alchemy
mirrors leading into new dimensions
the hub of a mediocre kingdom
ceiling sculptures
with hidden cameras
haven for personal protection
fit for a princess and a half

Written for:
The assignment was write a poem entitled “A Natural History of My (room)“, selecting whatever specific room you desired and given in a very personal sense. I chose to write about a princess’s bedroom. I do not have a princess’s bedroom. This is fiction.

Verification wastes my time, and often doesn't work. I am going to stop commenting on pages that require verification one of these days.

Oh, Z, I am so disappointed to read this photo was not taken from your bedroom… ha ha.
Can you imagine having to be a princess? I mean, what a drag, and you spelled out all the drawbacks well in your poem. Since they all come from accidental “royal” lineage, they no more need nor deserve cupids and all that crap in their homes… nor the undue attention paid them by the press! Nice write. Amy

Sounds like fiction to me. Fleur de lys not fluer de lis.
How do you sleep at nights?
A great New Year to you and yours.
Because I believe you are a princess inside, your description of your bedroom is very appropriate. Thanks for sharing.
Nice descriptions here, zongrik.

This is every woman’s dream bedroom.
That would be a nice view to wake up to ~
Thanks for sharing this ~
Happy New Year ~

Oh that was a lovely moment of fantasy. Love the image too.
All I could think of was having to dust that ceiling, or having to have someone else dust that ceiling.
Oh, now I see the hidden camera. Surely the person doing the dusting could take care of that. LOL
An enjoyable write!

Lavish vocab for a lavish room.
A princess bedroom would be gorgeous for me I think. *wink*
yikes, hidden cameras?
Well Done, I love the inner introspection~
elegant, you have incredible imagination.
Good one Tammy!
very good write,watch out for the cameras…….
LOL I was waiting to read about the bed, the mattress and feeling the pea!
Lovely read, very grandiose, fitting for a princess. 🙂
