Her majesty Aurora
Rises above
To greet her timber subjects
Peering through
her golden tresses
Pausing as she adresses
The variable inqueries
the discourse of life
doth provide
Then she retires
and from behind the last curl
of her golden violet gown
emerges her sister Celena
Shimmery sparkles
and glistening glitter
adorn her sapphire robe
Her voice
somber and sedate
echoes throughout
her sable-shrouded castle
This melancholy muse
sings her midnight lullaby
and she retires
through those overcast corridors
to her western chambers
side by side
with her zephyr escort
