Paul the Humble and How He Met the King

Since I am a Paul Potts fan and must do a paper for Literature class written in Shakepearian style I choose Paul as my theme.

This is my rough draft -it needs to be "fleshed out".


“Our doubts are traitors and make us lose the good we oft might win, by fearing to attempt”. ~William Shakespeare~

Paul the Humble and How He Met the King

Plot: Paul the Humble, a flower grower travels from town to town to sell his flowers and bulbs. Accompanied by his wife, "Jewels the Faithful'.

Paul is homeless due to a series of unfortunate events. So he is now a traveling salesperson. His house burned down when a wandering goat rammed the cooking pot into the straw, which in turn burned his cart. All that is left are his flowers and bulbs.

He sings a little song as he peddles his wares from village to village.
"Flowers, Flowers, pretty flowers for your love?
Flowers, Flowers, pretty flowers for your mum"?

The people start to gather around. What is that lovely sound? Soon more and more people come to the town square. "Simple, the village Joker", 'Amanda the Emote", and "Pipers the Persnickety" are especially taken by Paul the Humble. They call more people to listen. "Simple, the village Joker" does tricks to get their attention. "Amanda the Emote" weeps- the flowers are so lovely. "Pipers the Persnickety" actually smells the flowers and agrees they are fragrant and beautiful.

The people listen and love "Paul the Humble". They buy his flowers and bulbs and soon the land is adorned with bright flowers everywhere. People who didn't know they liked flowers plant them also. Every garden in the land is now array in color.

The King wants to know how that happened and the people tell him about "Paul the Humble". He is brought before the King where Paul the Humble thus presents him with the most gorgeously beautiful, original, never before seen, colours of the rainbow, bouquet!

The King is stunned by the beauty and has Paul declared the King's "Official Flower Grower" and the "Day of Joy" is proclaimed. Paul is given a permanent home on the Palace grounds and in the people's hearts.
