Atop thrones, glint emerald eyes
stately sitters, pick occasional sties
perfect stone, no visual blemish
nyloned feet, pets come to cherish.

Portraits of men, all Dorian Grays
thought ugliness would be held at bay;
paid for misdeeds, good looks gave way
pets at polished shoes, now gone stray.

Follow the feet, note their composure
stately grace has over-reached exposure
nyloned feet caress those polished shoes
distinct royals sing melodious blues.

castles grand, closets full of ancient bones
children near pets, their mouths with scones;
emerald eyes, radiant rubies on royals crowns
rest on cushions, atop thrones renowned.
