Queen Esther

Elegant steps,
The gaze of a queen, 
Clandestine; reaching the pinnacles of great towers
Whose garment I long to wrap for warmth. 

The smiles stands tall the heights of the Himalayas
This beauty - a gaze upon the mirage, 
Which ponders as its piercing power undermines wits

Angels set before work to carve out stool 
Stool meant for an eagle! 
This eagle is mine for I long for the queen's presence. 
If ye wonder why Esther be great, then I tell you why kings be born 

A race I'm winning; 
For it takes two to tango

My Queen, long may you reign in my kingdom 
Enshrined with meekness, 
Such candour your presence gives
For a lifetime, 
For eternity,. 
A guard of heart
A gentle heart
A queen's heart...
I shall gladly guide
