Gracefully elegant and romantic dreamer,

 Princess Aurora,

 shields her face with a ball mask,

 depicting a night sky 

with

 dazzling stars and moon symbolic of her awakening 

(due to true love’s kiss!) from eternal sleep. 

Swivel back the mask atop the handle 

to reveal Aurora’s stunning face 

framed by her golden hair.

Ready to mingle and delight 

among

 villains, princes, and princesses 

at a Disney royal masquerade ball, 

the polite princess radiates 

in a costume resplendent 

with

 incised and raised ornamental brocade patterns 

on her gown and bodice, 

golden sparkling necklace and tiara, 

and full-length gloves. 

The flowing dress,

 which shimmers with sheen,

creates a sense of movement.

Will Aurora’s masquerade 

keep her hidden 

from the omnipresent Maleficent Masquerade 

(available separately) to live happily ever after?
