There lived a pair of star-crossed 

lovers

Named Juliet and Romeo

In that day, there was no peace

For their families were sworn 

foes

Montagues and Capulets did 

not get along

Until the year Juliet met 

Romeo

A party was being held that 

night

Of course with a lavish feast

Eating and laughing and 

dancing like such

Could sweep anyone off their 

feet

But this party was forbidden to Montagues, was 

hidden

For only Capulets could attend this most 

frivolous affair

But Romeo, with face disguised, crashed the 

party, ill-advised

For it was most certainly unwise, unwise to 

attend without due care

His life would be changed forever, as he 

attended without care

He knew not who waited there

Across the vast and noisy 

ballroom

Romeo spotted Juliet

They fell in love immediately 

And likewise, their fate was 

set

They married the very next day

For their love could not very well wait

But while she awaited her husband 

with love

Her cousin, Tybalt, awaited with hate

By attending the prior day’s festivities

Romeo had crossed the line

Tybalt had a short temper, you see

And revenge must be payed in time

Romeo attempted to keep the 

peace

But a fight broke out, to his 

dismay

And fighting Tybalt, was not 

him, but his friend

And that friend, Mercutio, was 

slain

To avenge the death of his 

beloved best friend

Romeo fought Tybalt, and in 

the end

Tybalt was killed by Romeo’s 

hand

Now two men were dead, in a 

fight unplanned

The Prince of this land had earlier said,

And so, much to the two 

lovers’ woe

Romeo was banished from 

this town

With Romeo gone, Juliet became 

sad

But her parents had mistaken this 

grief

They figured she was upset over 

her cousin’s death

And thought a marriage would 

bring relief
