Used may be much of her service
How would I repay her service

White Herself clad in silvery white
White Herself on a river spiritual white
White Herself mounted on a lily white
White Herself consorted with a swan white

Romp to explore your efforts
Following are your parents

Tumbling home, me and all you do

Frisky sometimes in perfect rhyme

But familial, social, national too
In dissolution greed, jealousy, wrath

Deprived of what we long today
For luxurious golden glitter yet unhappy..?
Masticating memory in making of forefathers
