The Kingdom

Do you remember when, at the top of the stairs, in the kingdom of Sunshine

The Twin Kings held court?

One had a Queen,

The other a mistress.

Both had a just a touch of the Evil.

The Jester and the Fool were not one and the same but

Inseparable nonetheless.

Two different robyns chirped happily away

While sage, drunk, poet, and gypsy were all welcomed equally.

Do you remember when, at the top of the stairs, in the kingdom of Sunshine,

The Twin Kings held court?

Their castle impervious to all but Rain,

They would look down on their land

And joyously ask everyone to join.

While the great moat shimmered to the horizon

The Kracken ceased his mythic monstrous ways

To become friend and confidant.

Do you remember when, at the top of the stairs, in the kingdom of Sunshine,

The Twin Kings held court?
