Permanent NC - Both NADA and FADA have passed.

[Guest guest]

Their wedding anniversary was yesterday and I wrote the following. It is

called:

On The King's Deathbed

The Evil Queen was wheeled to

the dying King's bedside

" Shall I take that! " she said

as she jabbed an ancient and

whithering finger at

his Ring of Power

" Don't you think we should wait

until he is dead? replied the

Guardian Princess, aghast,

astonished that even the

Evil Queen could be so

cold in the last moments of

her King's life.

" Hmfph " spat the Wretched Queen

as if she had just been denied dessert,

while the Prince said nothing and

only looked at the ground.

The Elder Princess moaned from

her sleepy throne having always

run to dreams to escape the

living blackness that ever

surrounded and enveloped the

kingdom.

The Guardian Princess gently stroked

the King's arm and said nothing

while she watched the

tear slip from his eye.

I haven't posted in some time - spent a couple of weeks in the nut ward last

year after NADA died. Am slowing trying to climb back. It is hard. The poetry

and counseling help.
