a/n: a short poem based on "The Adventure of the Second Stain."
Priorities
Lady Hilda Trelawny Hope;
Such drama in her life!
She'd like to keep the comforts
Of a politician's wife.
~0~
A youthful indiscretion
Threatens everything which matters.
She'll pay whatever price is asked,
Despite the trust she shatters.
~0~
She has no care for politics
And does not count the cost;
Retaining all she holds so dear
Outweighs what might be lost.
