In the Forest of Aberdeen

The Wood Elves were summoned among the Greens Your here to spread the news about the birth Of our princess. Her name is Josephine She was born at eight fifteen Was nineteen inches long and weighted in at Six pounds 3 ounces the Queen is fine and the King is overflowing with happiness. The Wood Elves were summoned among the Greens Her eye color is aquamarine. Later on we will have a gala with full dress. Her name is Josephine She was named after the mother of the Queen For her courageousness The Wood Elves were summoned among the Greens We believe she has taken after her great great Grandmother Irene Seems she can see tree lights in varying degrees So she will be able to understand the old ancient Language which makes her even more priceless. Her name is Josephine. The other attribute is she will be a great go Between Since she is half human we believe there will be No limit to her success. Now go in peace with this news release around The greens Telling everyone you meet we have a princess her Name is Josephine.

Such a lovely piece Bette, so fantasy filled piece leaving much to imagine. As a matter of interest, what's the connection with Aberdeen?

Aberdeen to me seems like a magical place. Where all magical things can live in peace and harmony. I have quite a few poems about magical beings and things. I am glad you enjoyed this one.

Thank you. I am glad you liked it. I have a few of them. I try to write a poem for each grandchild. One is Did You See. It is about the sorcess of the lake who helped King Arthur and the other one is a Fiery Dragon. Thank you for your visit. I hope you have a great Merry Christmas.

A beautiful villanelle Bette. I had to look up to see what kind of poem it was, but I knew it was something I did not recognize. I am assuming this is about a new granddaughter, but I could be wrong. Love it that there are faeries involved, as I picture them at each family birth, clapping and cheering for happiness and joy all along the way.

Thank you Caren. I really enjoy doing villanelles. This is to announce another princess. The the other one I did was an invitation. I try to do some thing for each grandchild. My family is what gives me my ideas for what I write about. I hope you have a great Merry Christmas.

I'm with you Connie, I'm not a fan of forms with repeated lines especially the triolet but the villanelle is one I've tried several times and its quite beautiful:-) hugs Jan xx
