Of Warriors and Queens

And warriors have been known to cross a raging river,

climb the highest mountains, pass through the tallest fires

with blades flashing, fighting the most horrible battles,

sacrificing their lives in order to get to

their Queen, and protect her.

       

And today, warriors work the most horrible hours

escaping from the most angry of bosses, running from the tallest

of high-rises, risking their lives on the most hazardous

of highways, in order to get to

their Queen and cherish her.

        

And although Queens seldom need protecting now, warriors are known to still carry their armor and weapons, until they reach the front door. Where they leave it in a heap, so they can fully experience Her Majesty’s embrace, and perhaps even read her – some poetry.
