Not so many a year ago
In a kingdom by the sea
A princess adventuring-faring (soon lost) did go
Seeking treasures famous in legend and mystery
And this princess she lived with no other thought
Than to find ALL the gold and jewels and filigree— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) May 19, 2019
And her doom was the reason that long ago
In a ruined realm hard by the sea
That ghosts riding bones eyeless and terrible came
And bore her away from me
To shut her up in their tomb so cold
The sun nevermore to see— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) May 19, 2019
The vizier never schemes
Without causing me dreams
Of the realm rent asunder and dark
And catcalls never rise
but I feel the bright eyes
Of each watchful shark
Awaiting just the right tide
To cause the realm’s slide
Soon cometh the spark…— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) May 20, 2019
