The Bejeweled Tree Poem by Vera Sidhwa

The prince's heart could not be contained.
This girl, this princess filled it with overflowing love.
The prince looked at her endlessly.
She glanced a glance quickly.

The prince thought of things to say.
So he told her she was beautiful.
He told her she was kind.
He told her words, one of a kind.

Still when the princess looked at him,
It wasn't enough to give her a ring.
So he gave her his passion,
In the decoration of a huge bejeweled tree.
