Sleeping beauty

The King was in an awful state,
He stared down at the palace gate,
Awaiting, with a worried frown,
The footman whom he'd send to town
On a very urgent mission
To go and fetch the Royal Physician.
The reason for the King's dismay
Was that his daughter, Jemma-May,
Had gone to sleep three days before
And since then had done nowt but snore.
The doctor came in looking flush
And rather sweaty from his rush.
He shook the sound asleep Princess
He prodded, poked and did some tests,
And paced about beside the bed,
Then turning to the King he said,
"I don't know what to diagnose
"You're daughter seems quite comatose.
"She's bound to wake before to long
"As medically there's nothing wrong."
Three weeks went by and still she slept,
The Queen went to the King and wept
"I really think it's time we oughta
"Do something to help our daughter!"
The king then phoned the BBC,
"There's something you can do for me.
"Take this Royal Proclamation
"And broadcast it throughout the nation.
"My lovely daughter Jemma-May
"Has been asleep for many days.
"I'll give a prize of their own choosing
"To anyone who stops her snoozing."
Next day brought an enormous queue
Of people, stretching out of view,
Each person had a different way
To try and wake up Jemma-May.
The first attempts were rather shaky
They shouted things like "WAKEY WAKEY!"
One man brought in a barking dog,
The Princess slept on like a log.
Then a rather portly dame,
An opera singer of some fame,
Sang notes so high they broke a glass
But still she couldn't wake the lass.
Through big brass bands and lions roaring
The princess lay there soundly snoring.
Cannons blazing loud as thunder
Didn't break the maiden's slumber.
Just then a creepy looking bloke,
Dressed up in a top hat and cloak,
Sidled up beside the King
And said, "You promised Anything?
"If I succeed do you agree
"To let your daughter marry me?"
The King was feeling down at heel
So said, "Okay, you've got a deal."
The man took off his hat and crept
To where the princess soundly slept,
He paused a while beside the bed
Then slapped her firmly round the head!
The Princess yawned and blinked her eyes
And slowly she began to rise.
She blinked again and glanced around
Then looking at the man she frowned.
"It's not supposed to be like this,
"You're meant to wake me with a kiss."
"Well never mind all that." He said,
"For you and I will soon be wed.
"Oh, by the way, my name is Vince."
She said, "You're not a handsome Prince!
"I'll never marry you, you creep!"
And with that she went back to sleep!
