His plan, a thought of table round
of killing deeds in scything blow.
And from the courtly jester found
the treachery of they, his foes.

            She pled and bled her heart's renown
            To promise him, though sore remorse
            Her father, King, and gilded crown
            She'd remain true on his own course


For in the night a courier
would slip the gate to waiting boat.
And from the lips this harbinger
would plot their deaths upon the moat.

            A stranger came into their midst
            Swearing alliance with one shield
            And treated all with Love's great kiss
            Not one would guess he might repeal


As gold did bring the cloak of greed
and jewels did fall into those hands.
A king was told, of her, his seed
her wanted lips, another's plans.

            For in King's truth, he seemed God-sent
            This messenger appeared so kind
            But truth be known he was hell-bent,
            To destroy two realms with one mind.


Unknown to them, from lofty perch
three archers took a deadly bead.
The quarry found in frantic search
now slain before the plotted deed.

            The fairer maid she heard heart’s cry
            Though silence filled her own cold room
            And darkness came to her green eyes
            With grief grasping chill in the gloom


While glancing blow upon the shield
of what was aimed for treachery.
A cry to heed, ‘twas then revealed
a king lay wounded mortally.

            And who knows fear of one’s dead soul
            For treason’s call shan’t gain love’s heart
            Two realms now lost, no more the goal
            While plans of men swift fall apart

Lady,  this little venture has been very
pleasurable.  You write exceptionally well
and add measurably to a poem, a topic we
both have enjoyed.

Thank You
