In silent stealth the captor’s walk into the light of moon in trace a tremble of hand to guard from talk over the soft lips of beauty face A squirm and tussle til the sight of captor in the view of eyes No longer do the eyes see fright of suitor who in mem’ry sighs To wall of window 'fore the break of dawn comes ‘pon the guards in view as down the wall and rope they take a queen in smiles of one anew The boat is filled with guarded souls who take to oar and leave the scene before the sound of drummer rolls in peace of night and darken sheen A secret kept of Knightly swoon of queen and love on sheets of white whence two did love ‘neath silver moon to build the bond of stolen flight. As love has taken hearts away from those who vow to keep all time A war now turned from battle sway from whispered words of sensual rhyme For in the heart of queen does dwell the love of one in secrets kept and love of king in time does quell as lonely bed the queen had slept.

Gee Sun, I would have thought that the name would be ever so obvious....(a wicked smile comes into view as Magnus exits the scene.. pondering the next move of his dark knight.) Laughing under his breath....thinking of the queen prize....hmmmmmmmmmm |

BRAVO!!! Oh Barry, this is wonderful, sweet friend, this kind of reminds me of the Princess Bride and how despite one tries to marry her for royalty, her love is secretly aimed for someone elses possession! (sigh) This is a fabulous story, sweet friend, I noticed Part 3 is available now too, I'm off to read that now, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Barry, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..."

Magnus darling heart, Part two the story runs apace The pair of lovers start their race Will they escape the wrath him? Although he’s cruel, theft is a sin And creeping out into the night Isn’t safe when guards set sight How will these lovers get away? A wrathful king will make them pay Part three calls me I must be gone Darling boy your story moves right on Still perfect I love it utterly, you’ll be sorry just you wait and see Love and warm stuff As always Mushy Breathe through the heat of our desire |
