YOUNG PRINCE

Arise

My sleepy child

Greet this new day in royal splendor

Giants bow in reverence

As you make your way to the sun

Dry your tears of apprehension

Mighty hand of God

Prepares your passage

Dust of innocence

Falls lightly from your flaxen mane

Eyes of silver azure

Behold your destiny

Young Prince of our King

Go forth in regal fashion

Feel these words

Soothing force

Within your tiny fortress

The angels

Herald your arrival

On the barren stage prepared

Direct your energy

Harness powers of magnificence

Speak

In tongues of righteousness

Share your gift

With trembling apparitions

You have no limitations

Cautious lamentations

Seize this moment

Your victory

Assured

Smile

Often and freely

Drops of nervous perspiration

Dot the forehead of the villain

You shall take your place among great elders

Go in peace my son
