Wistful innocent searching leads him,
Beyond dusk’s long lambent sky,
Towards a field for gallantly sitting.
Finally, left alone for quiet musings,
Pondering their perchance meeting,
And fantasizing of a redheaded queen.

Now that is a poem worth reading…mysterious in a sense, but with the secure knowledge that in the end there is the beauty of a Red-Headed Queen to make sure all is well 🙂 Well done Audrey.

I might have been hoping to lasso in a Knight looking for his Queen. (A shot at writing fictional fantasy type poetry.) I think Red Headed Queens are beautiful. In my next life I’ll be a Queen. I’m glad you found it okay. Thank you, Dalo 🙂

I hear redheaded queens are the best queens. Fair to all their subjects, and they look damn good in a crown.

I think I’d make a nice queen. Definitely fair… Mmm, yes I’d wear a crown of woven tree limbs or gems. Not picky, Gus. 🙂

Yes, isn’t it possible, Indian Cowboy? There could be a redheaded/red headed queen out there somewhere surely.
