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 π 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 π
*laughs* This was special. I really like the idea of gallantly sittingβ¦doesn’t that just seem the best?

Stop laughing! *laughing* I’d say so, Sir. Move along, Hot Rod. What’s wrong with this poem? A girl can wish, you know!
Oh yes! I wasn’t beingβ¦wellβ¦ *laughs* Now come on!
Come on, what? *laughing*….you did this to yourself. Now, dig yourself out, Duke.
It’s a wonderful evening for smoking, I say!
Haha. Smoking? Here? Now? Tell me!! Or tell me a story…
A story? I love telling stories. You know, that’s how the PL started long ago…
I know, Silly. I love your stories. Started long long long ago….?
You do not know! I never told you. Yes, long ago.
Yes, you have too mentioned it! How long ago. Tell me…
Ummβ¦I’d say probably around the time Youtube was started.
You and Youtube grew up together. How nice!
But we didn’t know of each other then.
No, we didn’t. *sad face* Feels like I’ve known you awhile now, however.
Yes, isn’t that great? *smiles bigly*
*smiles* Yes, it is, Duke.
Audrey, the language in this is just spectacular! Makes me sigh π β€
Thank you, Neha. You know how we romantics can be, my friend. Lost in longings is where you’ll find me. β‘

The red-headed queen,
As she likes to be seen … π π π
Oh my goodness, Salva. π
Sorry, but that one was far too inviting to miss the opportunity … π
The words and the concept rule, yes, Red.
Ha. Yes, well, thank you, Zak.
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. π
I like that you’re flexible about crowns π
π Yes, a lady should always be flexible about her adornments.
Very dreamy, Aud. Loved it π
Thank you, Sleepy π
A red headed queen?
Yes, isn’t it possible, Indian Cowboy? There could be a redheaded/red headed queen out there somewhere surely.
In India, no! Sadly!
What a bummer for you! Maybe try looking harder.
But, I like red hair, so the concept of a RedHeaded Queen is pretty damn cool!
Well, I think so, but I’m probably not the one to ask. I could be a bit bias. Ha! Not enough poetry about redheads, I say. π
Cause you have red hair?
Yes
Oh don’t worry… Redheads rule!
Yes we do!
Always with such beautiful writing dear Audrey π
Ihsan, thank you. Always. *blush* π
