The Royal Horse

The Royal Horse, beautiful and quite,
Elegant with a known fame,
All white, shining bright, with love aglow,
Only touches few in name.

Once upon a time there was a Prince,
Forever sad and lonely,
Living in luxury in his Palace,
Yet, his thoughts were love only.

And the Royal Prince would speak to his,
Love often, 'O love of mine,
To be, here am I in my garden,
Capture my sad heart, in time.'

So he'd have splendid celebrations,
Formal ceremonies grand,
With dignitaries and royalty,
Visiting from every land.

Even with the pomp and circumstance,
In his life, the Royal Prince,
Couldn't be happy ever, so he's,
Looked for his love ever since.

'O rarest of beauties, my equal,
And most perfect love for me,
Hold mine eyes spellbound, come ravish my,
Heart O I plea, longing thee.'

There it just so happened that a horse,
The Royal Horse of long long,
Ago stood with a heavenly glow,
Playing music in love's song.

Many times he stood in that garden,
Flowering God's love to be,
With his magical music drawing,
The Prince's true love in plea.

And only once upon a time did,
The Royal Horse sing in song,
'Listen to thy heart O beloved one,
To thy Prince, thy will belong.'

'I sing for thee, O rarest beauty,
Come to thy Prince, give thy love,
For eternity, be his and live,
Happily after thereof.'

His music resounded in beauty,
Echoing through the moon's glow,
Climbing to heaven's stars and all through,
Dazzling love's magical flow.

Lo and Behold, love's tender feelings,
Awakened one to go kiss,
The Royal Prince who sensed her love too,
And they fulfilled each promise.

The enchantment of love belongs to,
Everyone if they'd but see,
Opening their eyes and hearts to have,
And grasp ever completely.

Yes the Royal Horse, beautiful and,
Elegant has a new fame,
All white, shining bright as love glows yet,
Only touches few in name.
