The Midnight's Princess

Oh, The Midnight's Princess is awake! She who brings light: Shining upon the greenery of the forest Penetrating through its coat of darkness That overshadows joy... and let's fear linger She who brings joy to all her people, Sitting upon her cradle of stars. Her light it is: that kisses each ripple in the lake, Singing soft lullabies as it sighs in its sleep. Her light that kisses the Earth with love: Plants her blessed halo upon its beings, And fears withdraw from a sleeping child's dream. Her loving whispered voice, channelled through the prisons of bark, She who sets all Dryads free: Gives their freedom to dance free. And Satyrs with their lutes and flutes, Elven maidens, Nymphs and Dwarves, They dance in the light of her grace: Until the Midnight's Princess's chariot is driven away.

This is just so lovely, so endearing, Kaveesha. I wish that I could have read this to my daughter (now 40) when she was younger. Enchantingly done! :) gw
