"Castle In The Desert"

Sorry for the very long delay... There were problems about Blogger and I didn't know where to keep updating my work.


Now, to something much better: This song-like little poem goes -as I use to do- with the music of a song that I like so much. In this case, "Love is", by Jon and Vangelis.
If you want to follow it better, here's the URL:

And the verses are sung by Zaphod, right when he knows the final came to him but somehow knows that the Flower he loved so much will be there, waiting like she always did.

Flower, please hear
the fading voice of this King
going to find your open arms
and have at last the rest I need
that you alone can give...

Long time ago
it seems to me
since you're gone
to find beyond Earth
your way to Heaven.

Days of foraging
full of adventure
seem so forgotten
like our lost childhood,
but in our meeting
we will remember them.

We built a kingdom
strong as our marriage...
Now I can tell you
that our empire
didn't fade away
after you gave your life for us.

My loving Flower,
guide me to your heart
between the million stars...
Just then we'll conquer
some new world for us...
King and Queen, as one.
