My Kingdom For a Queen

I’m living in a world
with a sky that has no sun
The oceans have no waters 
and time has not begun
 
There are no hills or valleys
No grasses and no trees
There are no colors in the sky, 
the flowers or the leaves 

There are no stars or moon at night 
to guide me on my way
There is nothing in this world of mine 
that brings me joy today

But still I am so hopeful
one day you’ll step inside 
Let me to take you by the hand
and I will be your loving guide

I’ll show you all the marvels
of this world in which I live
A world that’s filled with wonders
and has so much to give 

The  flowers are all so beautiful 
the colors vibrant and bright
you’ve never seen a moon 
like the one we have at night

The stars shine just like diamonds 
And I’ll give them all to you 
The roses are so beautiful 
we have red white and blue

The mountains all have snowcaps 
the valleys grasses green 
in this world I’m the king
and you will be my queen


Darrell

Written for my friend who’s world
changed with the arrival of his queen
