Stories of the North Another poem. This one is about the stories Christine's father told her and Raoul.
Fire tipped phoenixes,
Dark swords of lead
Angels of Music
Singing in her head
Bittersweet triumphs
Miserable losses
Little beautiful Lotte
Saved from the monsters
Little Lotte's scarf
Un drown and safe
Lotte's favorite hat
In the pocket of his cape
This super hero saved her
From having a great sorrow
This young boy of fourteen
Giving the yarn a morrow
Dragons couldn't harm him
Dust is repelled
Lotte will love him
When she's grown and well
He will give her happiness
Until her Angel is sent
Then she will learn to sing
And with music she shall vent
Although he once saved her
Raoul will be alone
For the Angel will appraise her
And her love he will then own
And so as he sits with her
Satiated with pleasure
Christine will clutch the scarf nearby
And will remember and dearly treasure.
