It was a slow walk
with nobody to talk
went up the hill
where it was still
sauntered there for a while
amazed at the style
royal and imperious
beautiful and gorgeous
the scenery around
the calmness found
compelled me to stay
it would have made me gay
but I had to go down
to the lowly ground
where I live not alone
with a family in town.
who would wait for my return
my disappearance sudden
would put them in turmoil
