I gave my Gold to my King, He rejected it with a venomous sting. I gave my Diamond to my Queen, She treated it as though it was something unclean, I gave my Ruby to my Prince, His reaction only made me wince. I gave my Sapphire to my Princess, Her reaction was by far the worst. I gave my Silver to the court jester, His treatment of it was no better. Saddened, alone and let down, I quickly left the castle ground. I found a Pauper on the street, And laid my jewels down at his feet. He smiled at what he saw, Perhaps because he found in them no flaw. He gathered them & held them close to his chest, At last! I'd found someone who'd appreciate them best. #BlueRain 2017
