that would otherwise remain 
unsolved mysteries.

More than just a dream,
The Poetry King
lives eternally,
in you and me.

By pain of death and muted heart.

For at thy King’s pleasure, ‘tis true,
I soon, to take my leave of you,
I pass not blame, nor beg for life,

PASSING ROYALTY

A shout...a cheer...

Where's time gone?

 

Young girl and old lady

Passing by;

A smile...a wave...

The blink of an eye.
