Boudicca and Prasutagus
#poem
In misty veils of ancient time,
Where courage met the divine,
Boudicca stood, a warrior’s flame,
A queen of strength, unbound by name.
Prasutagus, her steadfast king,
A bond as fierce as the songs they’d sing.
Through trials vast, their spirits soared,
A union forged, both sword and word.
For when Rome’s greed tore bonds apart,
It kindled rage within her heart.
No chains could hold her, no empire tame,
She rose as fire, unyielding, untamed.
Beside her shadow, his wisdom stayed,
A silent guide through battles arrayed.
Though time would part their earthly ways,
His spirit lingered in her days.
Together, they were more than fate,
An emblem of love that could not abate.
In fields of strife, their story sings,
Of a warrior queen and a noble king.
