Ophelia Poem by Ima Ryma

Ophelia, noble and young,
Does seek Prince Hamlet for her own.
Flirtatious in both look and tongue,
She makes her love for Hamlet known.
But Hamlet shows disdain for her,
And says their marriage will not be.
Ophelia goes mad for sure,
And climbs into a willow tree.
A branch breaks and into a brook
Ophelia does fall and die.
Whether or not her life she took,
Shakespeare does not give a reply.

In Shakespeare's time Ophelia be
Played by a male actor most likely.
