WHEN I RULED THE WORLD...


I used to rule the world 
Seas would rise when I gave the word 
Now in the morning I sleep alone 
Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice 
Feel the fear in my enemies' eyes 
Listen as the crowd would sing 
"Now the old king is dead, long live the king!" 
One minute I held the key 
Next the walls were closed on me

Wouaouh Deann, Plenty of wonderful images!!
I love to pass here... And...
I adore the way your mind works! :D
And your talent is without limits...
It's just a little jump to say that I think of you and that I wish you and yours well.
I'm okay until now, and my family and friends too.
I kiss you my dear!

I cannot make out the author of this stunning poem. The art, as always, is stunning as well. You lead me to so many wonderful bits of poetry and prose, Deann. You are a jewel!
