A Poem from Tessa

This is a poem Tessa (age 14) wrote. I is excerpted from her current novel she is writing. I hope you enjoy.

Let peoples now rejoice
The dark and gloom is done
The war we fought has ended
Our worlds can see the sun.

Fair maiden, we salute thee
Young sir, we give our thanks
Wars river now is drying
Where once it filled its banks.

Thou camest from afar
To our anger-ridden land
Thou asked for nothing untward
But came to lift a hand.

In thankfulness we grant thee
This crown of heavy gold
May thou bear it ever wisely
As the lands which now thee hold.

May thee be blessed with children
To carry on thy reign
To comfort thee in thy old age
To ease thee of thy pain.

May thee be blessed with riches
With greatest wealth untold
With sliver and with jewels
With cups of finest gold.

Our blessing be upon thee
Our new King and Queen
May thy lives be happy
The lives we wish wed seen.

All hail King Erlan Helan-El!
All hail Queen Ilianna Rohon-Ter!
Long live the High King and Queen!
