My Kingdom

Folder: 
Nature/Environment

THE ORIGINAL VERSION



Each morning daylight spent

In the kingdom of my heart

Guarded with tender loving care

A sweet fertility retreat.



The king on the throne he ruled alone

The queen lip-tight by his side atone

The subjects paying a homage round

Waiting for the crown to groom and bloom.



My kingdom is known throughout the land

Deck with arches and rainbow rites

Flowing fountains and streams of grace;

Landscape of nature its beauty praise.



The beds of roses in courts parade

The pots of daisies curtsy and fade

Hanging ivies and jasmines spread

Ornaments of ferns and lilies breed.



The plots and rows of blooms displayed.

In amphtheatres and terraces of sunken frayed.

The shrubs are trimmed; grounds covered lace

Of thymes and tiny dainties glazed.



My kingdom is built in nature's plain;

Planned for calmness, peace and sweet serene.

Daily showers host its friendly guests

My crown coloured crimson, green and gold. ....
