The Emerald Princess

Tell me the story

of the Emerald Princess

who lived in this forest

many centuries ago

The sheen of two gems

filled with ivory moonlight

her hair was a meadow

when kissed by the wind

Shadows play in every light

a secret kept in darkest night

see what we saw with our eyes

when she awoke without disguise

Tell me the story

of the Emerald Princess

who lived in this forest

many centuries ago

Her beauty's been kept

all throughout the ages

the spell of forever

the roots of her sight

To lift the veil the spell's been torn

the secret's known and she's forlorn

and princess weeping willow's hand

had written down the saga's end
