A village queen, of guileless grace,
Her tale, let us now embrace.
A ripened field of golden grain,
Sways with a rhythmic, gentle strain.
Draped in green, the earth does smile,
A verdant, captivating style.
A humble cottage, built with care,
Makes even grandest mansions share
Their blush of shame, their gilded pride,
Where dwells a queen, with naught to hide.
A joyous spirit, light and free,
Whose story we shall now decree.
Her cottage, her entire domain,
Her all, in sunshine and in rain.
Weary travelers find their way,
And gather strength to face the day.
The village queen, upon the track,
Awaits her love, there is no lack
Of hope that blooms within her gaze,
As twilight's lamps ignite their blaze.
Witnessing this sweet accord,
The evening star, the moon, adored.
A village queen of gentle heart,
Whose story tears the world apart.
When slumber's fairy casts her spell,
And dreams, like treasures, gently fell,
The world, in revelry's embrace,
Lost in a joyous, vibrant space.
But fate, in guise of shadows deep,
Crept to her home, where secrets sleep.
Her face, so innocent and mild,
A blush of self, the queen beguiled.
The destined act, she must unfold,
And cried aloud, her story told.
The hand of death, upon it's way,
Forever marked the fading day.
Dark witches came, their shadows near,
With clouds of black, and rising fear.
Upon death's harp, a mournful sound,
A mad lament, the world around.
The village fair, to dust did fall,
Grief's diwali for one and all.
Peace departed, joy took flight,
The golden fields, consumed by night.
Dark witches came, their shadows near,
With clouds of black, and rising fear.
Where went the sunset's gentle gleam?
Where went the birds' melodious dream?
Where went the meeting, soft and sweet?
Where went the laughter, life complete?
Why rise, oh moon, in silver sheen?
Why come, ye stars, to what has been?
Those whom you loved, have gone away,
Leaving behind a darkened day.
The village walls, in ruins lie,
Recounting tales that never die.
My womb now holds a sacred space,
For many queens, in time and place.
