The Prince of Poets and Dylan Freak
He was the Prince of Poets
The Jewel of the Sea
The glowing white light
Of the noble and free
He kept court with the wise
Studied Dylan to a tee
His affection was sincere
And even dared to revere
The Queen of his life
A Dylan Freak whose veneer
Of painted face and silks so sheer
Loved him so dear
And without any fear
But lived too far to be his wife
And it bothered him greatly in life
So one day he swam out to sea
To try to bridge the gap between the Queen and he
But alas, he proved not mightier than the waves
And he perished to the depths of the ocean
Which caused a great deal of commotion
But not so much as to compare
To Queen Dylan Freak so fair
Who mourned his demise
For much of her life
Until the day she set sail
To meet her fate as the wife
Of the seafaring ghost of the Prince
Who has reigned over the watery deep since
And she became his in spirit for eternity
No longer a part of the tapestry of life
Joining the dearly departed fraternity
As beloved Majesty and wife.
