Queen Quaneisha the Quick Queen


The Slightly eccentric A to Z blogging adventure of unknown and rather unpopular Modern fairy tales
2013


Q Queen Quaneisha the Quick Queen 


The QUINTESSENTIALLY QUAINT Queen Quaneisha was famously quick, she liked to eat quickly run quickly and do all her queenly duties quickly and to all was known as the Quaneisha the quick. Every morning she would quietly encourage everyone round the breakfast table in her palace to eat up very quickly.
Quick quick quick quick Quick quick quick quick, the queen would say making everyone eat up, there are things to be done, eat your breakfast nice and quick.

Then after breakfast she would say Quick quick quick quick Quick quick quick quick, wash all the dishes.



Then Queen Quaneisha would make the entire palace dance the Quick step but very very quickly . . . . . . . . Quick quick quick quick Quick quick quick quick would say the queen quietly.

She would read her books quickly, ride her horse quickly and run round the palace gardens very quickly, saying to all the gardeners Quick quick quick quick Quick quick quick quick there are weeds growing in her quiet but quick voice.

She would even tell the birds to fly quickly the trees to grow quickly and would say to the clouds in the sky Quick quick quick quick Quick quick quick quick clouds.

Then one day she decided to take everyone to the beach because it was sunny and said Quick quick quick quick Quick quick quick quick everyone onto the beach, she then stood at the edge of the sea and said Quick quick quick quick Quick quick quick quick waves. And ran up and down the beach very quickly.

She then said . . . . . . . . quick Sand

And was never seen again . . . . . and everyone said that is very odd

The End

    How you found so many "Q" letters marvel me and to put them in a post is so clever. Well done.

      To tell the truth I think I used QUICK QUITE a lot, more than my allotted QUOTA . . . . .

      Thanks for hanging in there still a way to go to the grand finale at Z

      I noticed that there were always eight queenly quicks spoken seven times in your story, so maybe she could have been named Queen Quaneisha the Eighth.

      I really should have noticed that and done one more QUICK X 8. She could have beheaded her husbands very quickly then.

      I did a steam powered duck last year that went Quack rather a lot, which means if I do this next year I am running out of options

      AH yes a bit late for Options but not too late for Some Serious Options.

      glad you liked the tale, it is all plain sailing from here on except for the drawings, I really should not have started that but ho hum committed now.

    The Lil Man had to read this one out today, as I literally cannot talk. Do you know how painful it is to laugh when you have an infected tooth? Very painful indeed! Brilliant ending Rob Z. :)

      DAMN I appear to have deleted my own comment Miss Lily.

      I was saying I also have toothache and have been shouting NO NO NOT THE DENTIST. I was struggling with fish and chips but managed a chocolate tart dead easy?

      Master Lil man will enjoy tomorrows ending I think, it is classic fairy tale in the traditions of the old school. None of this nice PC stuff (I do not refer to computers)
