Beauty & The beast

Self explanatory.

A princess who sits awaiting her knight,
Thats not the kind she was, when all was right.
Hair so bright it blinded those near.
A gorgeous smile from ear to ear.
One night she called her gaurds in a fright.
She didn't expect to see an awkward knight.
He kneeled to her feet grasping her hand,
She'd never seen such a ugly man.
A spider is all that had startled her,
So she sent him away "As you were".
The very next day he asked to speak, but
She refused because she thought he was weak.
A few weeks later the princess grew ill.
The king asked "who will take care of my little girl"?
The awkward knight volunteered for the job.
The next two weeks the princess was a mean snob.
Though she saw his hideous face it started to fade.
His carrying heart hit her heart like a blade.
She found herself falling in love with him fast.
Not knowing how long his kindness would last.
Eventually they shared a blooming kiss
Setting the whole kingdom into bliss.
Later married with kids to come, they found happiness.
It all started when beauty and the beast shared a kiss.

I could see this in an illustrated children's book. It's cute. The only thing I'd say is maybe expand a little between the lines "She refused because she thought he was weak," and "A few weeks later the princess grew ill." It seems like there's something missing there.

I don't know if you like to sketch or paint, but I really do think some illustrations would bring this piece to life.
