Plenty of Room
‘What makes a room more defined?’ inquired the youngest mage.
‘Is it its walls-?’ replied another fellow mage.
‘——Or the corners?’ one other asked.
‘Perhaps a room is defined by the walls…that surround it,’ said the most senior of the mages.
Along came the little princess who had been eavesdropping from behind the gathered mages.
’What’s got you all tickled young
lady?’ one mage croaked staring at the young ruler.
She chuckled, ‘A room is not defined by any of those things.’
She watched the youngest mage raise his eyebrow waiting for her next response.
‘A room does not have to be defined by any walls, corners, or even a front door.’
The mages burst out laughing, but as soon as they did they watched as the princess giggled and smiled.
‘O, see that you take some cover before the storm hits. If you do not mind, you can hop along with me all nice & dry underneath this..’ she said as she opened her umbrella.
‘There’s plenty of room for us all here not to be soaked by the rain!’
