Two Daughters Vie for Prince

Two Daughters Vie for Prince

One daughter dresses in gaudy jewelry
With lots of sugar in her inflection
The other daughter wears her modesty
Like a proud blue Jeanne
With a soft smile and even softer words
That sprinkle sugar lightly

The two girls make ready for the prince to visit
Jeanne says, “I can be sexy.
Let’s have a contest, dear sister.
You flaunt your derrière
for maximum lurid effect.
I will give the prince
a subtle hint of my sensuality.”
Jeanne’s sister bends down
as if to pick up a fallen coin
but her aim is to pick up the prince

Jeanne turns for the prince
She clasps her derrière
and puts her hands in her back pockets.
The prince’s eyes are rapt.

He says, “I too store my stress back there.”
Jeanne replies, “Definitely,
If you store your billfold there.”  
The prince says, “You trade in a currency
more lucrative than dollars.”
“My love is not legal but rather tender.
Worthless in the marketplace.”
He replies, “But priceless in its nuptial value.”
She says, “Then my answer
is a thousand times yes.”
