For the one named Rosa, who I love deeply.


Letter Of FairyTale

Radiant like the sun that rises
Over the setting moon
Silence is deadly, thus I speak
All words before first noon

'Tis the morn and the sun is bright
My peasant eyes have seen
A beauty most rare, the lovely lady
Dressed in black and green

Royalty so far from thee
Common folk like me could wish
Fate to come and intervene
Then live a life; simple and clean

King has spoken, his voice a token
Invites the public to see
A play tonight at half past five
I to attend and the lady to arrive

The night of debut
The courtyard as packed as a ring
The curtains pull back; a voice would attack
The lady had started to sing

With doubt in mind, I stepped on stage
The king now in a furious rage
All I could do is stand and stare
At the radiant angel; so formal and fair

That night was a step indeed
Into a wonderful life
Filled with devotion and promise
Months later, I made this lady my wife

Thus ends my lucky tale
Results are so easy to see
When a peasant of luck
Finds abundance has struck
His dreams are now finally free
