A Letter To Her Lady Majesty
You are the Queen of Sheba whom I never knew
—But of whom endless stories I have heard;
Ten thousand scrolls have I read of you,
Yet a ten thousand more I have still, unread.
Your beauty a tale many have spoken of,
Albeit a legend of envy for your counterparts;
The path to your heart I heard is to tough,
That in a day you once broke a hundred hearts!
But that it may be known to you dear Lady Majesty,
That of your splendour I have been so thrilled,
So much that I could not but let this hour be
But to write in a hurry, a letter unsealed...
And this have I done not to appear too brave:
Only that my head and my heart, you might save.
