Full moon baths red carpeted
castle entrance aligned
with glowing torches
Ballroom finely dressed,
guarded by knights of
valor, greeting the
guests of this
masquerade
ball
Illuminated elegance
spun from crimson
tapestries hung
trimmed in
gold
Glorious trumpets bellow,
announcing royalty's
arrival at the
staircase's
archway
King's magical hand stands
to right with eager ears
awaiting the cause
for celebration
Attentive silence falls from
the lips of anxious guests
for the King's
honorable
respect
Proudly spoken is the
name of honor that
has been granted
sole rights to a
delicate hand
Maiden's tears spill as eyes
look past her designated
future to see her
heart's desire
suited in
armor
