The Place of Slumber 2
The animals did not turn away
When she had let out a scream
The maiden thought this odd, this scene,
And thought this all a dream.
Just then, a pain within her arm
Let her know this to be real
She questioned, now, the sight she had
And questioned what to feel.
Just then, an owl upon a stump,
Commenced to speak in verse
Explaining all she came to see
Providing answers for her thirst.
She learned of her new destiny
And what she had to do
The fear crept in, but she pressed on
And held this dream as true.
