meaw...meaw...


Twisted the threads again and again
Night and day, in light and rain.
Till they had no more hope,
Than to become a strong rope.

The little bell and its ring,
Looked perfect for the rope string.
A noose it became, when I put a knot,
And was ready for the final shot.

One eye, one aim and one throw
Towards the beast, that mew
Then came the sound of the bell
Alas, it ran away into its cell

A month or more it may take
Before that monster finally wake
Only then can I be sure,
If I have belled it, forever!

U'r expertise of tying the bell is amazing. The beast will wake up after sometime.
But wondering the way u will tie the knot to ur lady. We have to have a line of ladies(Queue), so that we can c how many survive!

Will we get those amazing days together again...Will the beast succumb to our knots...Were they potent enuf to make it sit calm...I know not...

Hope, the only thing we can...

king is wise...

I am sure u have done well.
dunno if u have belled the beast forever?
Many a key will open the cell...
why dont u use the keys and stop to wonder?

But then, why destroy a wonder?
curiosity may kill the beast...
why commit a big blunder?
we want another shot at the very very least!
