Moonlights Horse Tamela
Silent is in the cold chilly air,
While Moonlight takes her ride
Upon her favorite horse,
she calls ‘’ Tamela,’’ which means
like to control everyone within
its own influence,
she riding and galloping around the castle
looking at the beauty of the land,
this beauty had no words, so breath taking,
but as soon as Moonlight seen Dark Angel
walking her way, she got choked up,
while the heavy winds raged,
ash of rose dust blow into the air,
Oh, Dark Angel never plays fare,
Envy eyes is he, who looks at me,
Always around me every day,
Drops of rain started coming down,
I must always remember everything,
Keep track of his anger, each bladed grass
Has a cut of stain of blood,
Of another soul that has been taken down,
Dark Angel, called out saying it’s time to come in.
Let the slave walk ‘’Tamela,’’ back to the stable,
come in out of the rain,
He takes Moonlights hand to help her get off
Her favorite horse, then she and Dark Angel
Walked very fast back to the castle,
While Brutus was at the door,
reaching for Moonlights shawl.
