Hold Fast My Goddess Category: Writing and Poetry One day you're the flavor of the week Your're riding high upon your steed All hail Queen Diana Goddess of fire and queen of the underworld Gaze upon her as she ambles through her adoring fans and loyal subjects But the planets did realign Bad news for her zodiac sign The sands of time did shift as the winds of fate blew through The cold hearted orb who rules the night had other plans for you The fickled gods played a trick or two They pulled the carpet out from under your feet All your props hath vanished Your horizons and your landscapes are bare No hope yet abounds But you said to yourself, "Fret not, for the sands of time shall shift yet again" "I can wait here and weather the storm" "Till my horizons take a different form" "Till I no longer feel forlorn" "Till a spark of hope is yet born" "Till the sun shines yet again upon my kingdom" "Then I shall run in green meadows fair" "Put flowers again in my hair" "In my heart will not be a care" "Like dancing on clouds with Fred Astaire" But the cold winds of fate are blowing hard on you now Oh how you dread to feel their sting "Would not my love yet comfort me in my hour of need" "Or so yet release me from this bondage of torture" "My heart leapeth like a dove for him" "Yet he is not here with me now" "Or so yet the thought of him I cannot bring to bare" "Leaving me here in my depths of despair" Fear not Queen Diana For even if all that's left of thy kingdom Is a single blade of grass When the sun doth yet shine her light again You shall see rolling green fields of wheat again Your lover awaits you my love He hasn't gone anywhere Nor yet forgotten your tender charms Lying with you in his arms So entrench thyself my love Hold fast to those things you know and hold dear All storms do yet tire of their wrath and subside Planets continue to move and change their alignment And the shifting sands of time will recreate your castle for you shortly
