- Keep The Secret -


                                        paths in the darkness
                                     fireflies ascend as lanterns
                                       dancing calm and bright
                                     invitation - the queen's ball
                                       a small secret of its own

Lovely! Yes, the queen perhaps has many secrets, fireflies her flashy conspirators. The moon, a romantic light.
