The Queen

She prayed for a stallion,
But got a mare
She cursed not the gods for spurning her wish
Instead, she found the mare a stable
And lo, a beautiful stallion sired the mare a foal
That foal is now a stallion every groom clamors for 
For out of him births another stable 
She understood seasons, she overpowered time

For sure, to understand time is to comprehend its full irrelevance in the greater scheme of things. Well said.
