A Pauper Peeking
In keeping with the Renaissance theme....a poem. (Really I'm too hyped on Starbuck's to put a whole post together.
A Pauper Peeking...(by me last year)
My place in society, of which I bide,
Is not enough, so, I sneak and hide.
Behind the flowers, behind the lattice
To attain a position nearer the palace.
Yet in my heart, I know it is not earned,
But for this close hiding spot, I've greedily yearned.
I spy the queen, in her frills contained,
She glides along, her haughtiness ingrained.
I utter a peep that she may know I am there,
She moves not her head, she does not dare.
For ahead awaits her duty, her love, her dear.
While her apparition, in my dreams, I must revere.
And so it is, I'm resigned to this one and only gander,
Of the lady I love, of her life, and her grandeur.
