charmed
delicate vision to fell a beauty
lilting passions do amuse
creating lovely landscapes to crave
in the innermost sanctum desire
intimate love advanced and a secret passion grew
lingering doubts did ensue
but favor over a suitor quenched fires of renown
where a lass question everything she knew
for her lover true
who in good stead did understand his trespass
but could not withstand his need
on one tempest night his chastity foiled by the dame
so enraptured with each other they gave in
a night of temptuous lust did alter their course forever
her honor blemished she was with child
and he to the front of the war was called
he lament the fates
and cast himself into the maylay
and was slaughtered by guilt
the lady cast from all society did bloom
her child fair and her time in the county taught her much
soon she listen to nature above any gossipy hen
learning how to cure ailments with plants
not a puritan by any means
she new the science of the earth
drawn to it's magic she tapped into her ancient ancestors rites
whose powerful beliefs still remain in the dirt
she quietly made her way through the years
curing who she could careful not to be called a witch
charlatins came and went with false remedies
but a woman with knowledge was feared
her daughter under her tutelalge flourished
she was grouded with wisdom
and a seer of visions
her magic powerful
left descedants after the old ways
who still blossom to this day
