Crown Jewels
What it is to be treated
like a princess,
with courtiers
bearing precious treasures
on a tray.
Their smiling faces, shine
concerned, when enquiring,
"How are you today?"
They bring brilliant cut diazepam
with pale rose rocks
for restless nights.
They proffer pearls of wisdom;
gems that encapsulate
heaven sent delights.
Born aloft,
on velvet cushion,
protected from the world;
on which a frightened child
can lay. Unmolested;
safely curled.
