Summer's Reign
Nature’s reign is gone
 The clouds make way for the glorious King
 The cerulean sky is his herald
 The flowers his squires, proudly wearing their liveries
 His green servants had borne the fruits of their labor
 And now they toil to survive his tyrannical rule 
 His crown there for all to see
 He pleased with what he sees
 
 Nature’s reign is gone
 But the King sees he must vie for his power
 There is nobility below
 And may just usurp the throne
 These nobles are strange subjects
 Who may just dare challenge him
 His crown there for them to see
 He displeased with what he sees
 
 The King’s reign continues
 But he feels his throne threatened
 Should he unleash his wrath upon them
 The nobles shelter in shade where he cannot reach them
 They frolic in the water by the sand he commands 
 And don their drying cloaks when done 
 His crown there for them to defy
 He displeased with this defiance
 
 The King’s reign continues
 As does the nobility’s opulence and insolence
 He is sure they conspire with his foe Winter
 For the little nobles flock to dine upon a cold brew
 The older ones dwell in houses under wintry spells
 The King knows witchcraft is involved
 His crown there for them not to see
 He displeased with this disrespect
 
 Nature’s reign is gone
 For these nobles have dethroned her
 Still they pay respects to their High King
 Since he granted them such luxury  
 On the sand they bask in his glory
 While the little ones build him castles
 His crown there for them to see
 They pleased with what they see
