Far away
Forest filling the land
A lone queen's castle
exterior veins
Vines twirling up the walls
Flowers blooming
Distracting from within
Sun rises
Morning dew dripping
Dropping down the leaves
An unkept beauty
Revealing the creator's masterpiece
Four square windows
Dust settled over
Hazy view of a dark living room
Linens wrapped in plastic
Man made creation kept anew
Creaky boards under toes
Creeping up the stairs
Hollow walls
Frames incasing happy pairs
Voices echoing through the halls
Bright light shining
Under the crack in the door
Stair case winding
Path lead by curiosity across the floor
Hinges squeaking
Queen's quarters revealing
Sheer, fine fabrics draping dark wood
Elegantly flowing downward
Loose tendrils sprawled against the pillow
Slumber ever peaceful
Sun shining through a window
Breeze through a crack cool
Surrounding drapery catching the wind flow
Righteously restful
Reality shakes
Upright- mind full
The bird's songs play
Cloudless sky blue
Crisp green trees sway
Having bid the castle ado
Painfully aware, unendingly awake
Holy reign on path to ensue
Trail following the waters edge
Amphibians and reptiles habitat
Feet stomping across the bridge
Treading loudly to avoid attack
Glimmering- attention pulling
Once at the other side
Bending, she must crouch
Peaking above water, frogs staring in her eyes
Arms raising, removing her crown
Her worth much more than jewels
Little importance to be renown
Matters of the throne no longer her duels
