Elizabeth's Happiness. Poem by Fay Slimm

Thomas her lover,
........................ then rallied strong men
Who, warriors bold,
........................ came fierce to the wall
Demanding release
.......................for their Lady, and when
Heard by the felons,
........................ alarmed now, recalled
Their folly, repented,
...........................knowing this princess
Could summon a war,
......................... but instead she chose
To forgive great wrong,
................................ regally addressed
Misdemeanors, wed Thomas,
..................................... sailed to those
Who, long awaited,
........................... welcomed her keenly
Elizabeth. from now,
.............................. realised her dream.

(The End)
