Tower : Image by KL Caley

I suppose you might call it palatial

a step up from the dungeon

but your new quarters in the castle

hardly give you freedom

The view from your room is majestic

as far as your eyes can see

but there’s no-one around – to hear your sounds

so you can’t exactly call yourself free

There’s a doorway out to the meadow,

but its locked with a kind of a grid

and guarded with one or two soldiers

to make sure that you’re well hid

They’ve decorated it like a palace

with candy colours and fancy curtains and all

but kept at the top of the tower

you won’t be the belle at the ball…..

    Ooh great post. Experiencing a touch of luxury but at a price. I think I could temporarily enjoy a few weeks trapped in a tower to get some writing done (especially a luxurious one – haha). Thank you for joining in the challenge
