Tudor Court

Oh, aren't they grand Love comes dancing hand in hand Bowing to each other Fluttering lashes all around From the yoke of sensual bondage You leave me wanting more Needing drops of grace to save me The lust of my youth still cries out With a touch of his fingers to skin He would rekindle her lust even higher With a twinkle in his eye, he bows to her A garden I have, which, has never been touched Though, he is a proud gardener I can tell Therefore, lord, protect me from my thoughts For the bloody butcher, has me at his will I beg of you, keep my thoughts from me Let him not take it from me, as the others before me 5 15, 2012 Was watching "The Other Boleyn Girl" Natalie Portman, Scarlett Johansson, Erica Bana from 2008. Someone might try casting king Henry with red hair since he was a redhead.

Whats up with this red head. I thought you wanted to be blonde? But your thinking is in the right place.

I bet I saw this movie. Did you watch the Tudors on cable? The King Henry was played by some sexy young actor. But I forgot his name. I really enjoyed this. That tudor family is quite the inspiration for poetry!!
