Zenobia Poem by Ima Ryma

Zenobia



Zenobia was a queen who
Stepped in as regent for her son
To govern Palmyra, to do
What Rome did tell her needed done,
In the third century, A.D.
When the Roman empire did rule,
And Queen Zenobia did be,
In time and place, a useful tool.
For reasons not quite clearly known,
She got herself on Rome's bad side.
Rome's armies forced her from her throne.
An unqueened Zenobia died.

In Syria of modern day
She' depicted in a good way.
