The True Origins of Everyone's Favorite Monster (Final)

Long, long ago, in a kingdom far, far away, lived a little princess everyone knew as Cookie. Cookie was the sweetest princess in all the land. She was a little rough around the edges, but wonderfully soft at heart.

Just a week before she turned 18, King Chocolate and Queen Chip told Princess Cookie that she must choose a suitor before her birthday, or they would be forced to choose one for her. Cookie didn’t want to be rushed or forced; she just wanted to find true love in its time, just like any good princess would prefer. The only solution she saw was to run away, so she packed her essentials, and ran deep into Rainbow forest.

She ran straight down Red Road, through Orange Oasis, past the Yard of Yellow and the Green Graveyard. When she got to Blue Boulevard, she needed to stop and catch her breath. Not a minute after she sat down, she was greeted by a handsome furry creature, offering her a bluebell and kissing her hand. She looked up into his eyes, and fell immediately in love.

Princess Cookie and the blue fluffy monster then spoke for hours, until the sun set over Rainbow forest, and it was becoming dark. The princess told the monster she wished to bring him back to the castle and marry him, but knew her parents would disapprove, as he was not a handsome prince. The blue fluffy monster insisted that since their love was true, her parents would understand.

When they arrived back in the palace, and Cookie’s parents were overjoyed that she was alive and well. Of course, just as she had suspected, they said the furry blue monster was in no way suitable for a princess. They promptly locked the furry blue monster in the deepest dungeon of the castle. 

Princess Cookie wept for two straight days, until her parents forced her to dry her tears and meet her suitors. One by one, young men came to try and win Cookie's heart, but none seemed to fill the void left by her missing furry blue monster. Her parents finally couldn't take another second of her agony, and gave her their blessing to marry the furry blue monster. They released him from the dungeon, and on the day of her 18th birthday, Cookie and the monster married.

A few months later, the princess discovered she was expecting a baby. The couple was overjoyed, and eagerly awaited the arrival of their child. One day, Cookie woke up feeling a little crummy, and was rushed to the royal emergency room. With her fluffy blue prince by her side, she gave birth to a tiny fluffy blue baby.

When the baby was wrapped up safely in her arms, she peered deep into its eyes and wondered aloud what they should name it. Before either of them could utter another word, the baby gazed back at its mother with wide eyes, opened its little mouth and spoke in a tiny voice, “Me want cookie!” and from that moment on, the three lived happily ever after.

While the Seasons Changed

These desks are made of
Wood as dead as autumn trees
As November fades

All winter I sat
Finally caught your eye and winked
That’s when the spark caught

When the snow melted
With the petals we blossomed
So fast and so strong

The warm sun had us
Wrapped around its fingers and
It was decided

Through dying trees and
Storms so rough the sun we’ll feel
Forever on us
