My sleeping beauty


A poetic response to Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare

(From Nurse's perspective)

My lady is sleeping
It seems like she’s dying
Her body lies on the bed
Quietly and sad

Paris is a good gentleman
Who can gives her love and wealthy
But my lady chooses Romeo
Who’s not in Verona
But in far away Mantua

Wedding is prepared
And our bridegroom is here
It’s time to get up and dress up
But my lady will never ever stand up

Tears drop down my face
My lady still lies on her bed with the fancy lace
My poor lady Juliet
Now
She’s really dying
