WINTER FLURRY

Winter Flurry’s turrets stood tall and proud
An illusion in the misty clouds
Princess Kelly knew that was not so
As she looked at it in the blowing snow

Her white dress swirled all around
As the wind blew making a lonely eerie sound
Sadness permeated her soul
As she realized she was all alone

The only royal left to carry on
As she looked over her Kingdom
Her family taken from her in one fell swoop
Caused by an evil greedy Duke

He came from a distance land
Attacking and killing everyone in his path
She escaped and hid in the woods
With a knight wearing a metal hood

They managed to avoid the evil Duke’s army
Until they finished pillaging causing carnage
They took and took until nothing was left
Then marched on leaving the kingdom bereft

Princess Kelly knew she was now in charge
With one lone Knight for a guard
She knew she needed to carry on for those left
That all needed to help pick up the mess

With no time to mourn her great loss
She prayed to God to help her pick up this cross
Thus with the Knight’s faithful help
They rebuilt the Kingdom to great wealth

She became Queen and he King
Across the land wedding bells began to ring
They had children and she had a family again
She and her husband had a long and happy reign

They rebuilt the castle and army stronger
So no attacking forces could plunder
They gave thanks to God every day
For all the blessings that came their way

About this poem:
A Facebook friend of mine wanted me to write a poem using her name as a princess or her little cousin's - I used her name as the princess and her little cousin as Winter Flurry for the Kingdom. Her name is Winter. It's a silly little poem to honor 2 people and their names.

Thank you Pinks. I'm so glad I could give you a sweet memory of your sister who I assume no longer lives here on Earth? But is in God's loving arms. Take care.

I thank you youras for your kind and faithful words. I did post a poem yesterday called Darkness to Light but no one seems to like it yet - it is kind of intense about the crucifixion but Palm Sunday, Good Friday and Easter are coming up.

This poem was published in the NV Moonlighter for the month of February 2020. I headed up the section of Children's Poems - so I guess I'm not as old as I think I am!! As I said before - wrote it for a friend and her little cousin. heart wings
