I wrote this poem in English when we read excerpts from "The Canterbury Tales." |
| Born onto a golden throne For sins she will need not atone Porcelain skin and light blue eyes A princess soon to fall to lies The maiden picks a flower sweet Surrounded by the summers’ heat Her innocence setting with the sun Becoming a woman with nowhere to run Emotions clash within her soul Begging the princess to take control Protected by a moonless night The raven-haired beauty takes her flight Appearing in her opulent gown The princess glides about the town Adulterating it with her sweet perfume Bastet’s will she did resume Under the guise of a royal call Into passion she did fall Bereft of freedom in her home Was the ghostly princess, left to roam |
