Her Majesty
She had the best instruction in how to act serene––
a necessary attribute if she would be queen.
And though she lacked true courage, at least she appeared plucky.
Daily, they assured her that of all she was most lucky
to have been born of royal blood—to have been truly chosen,
and that is how, over the years, her heart was slowly frozen.
The prompt words today were courage, chosen, serene and lucky. Here are their links:

Haha — I so remember telling my mother that she wasn’t the queen!

There’s a lot of ways to be chosen, but most of them aren’t all that much fun.
