Boadicea..a different view.
Boadicea revels in her womanhood, attributes overly blessed
Her voluptuous form is excited, but her hair is a mess
This covert and dangerous clandestine meeting
Allows no niceties or extended greeting
To cavort with this legionnaire
Would cost her kingdom, but love is never fair
She will lead her army, come daylight, against the Romans
But history makes no mention of the turmoil she as she indulges this romance
She will wield her sword well
And send this occupying force to the bowels of hell
She hopes in the throes of battle, not to have to have to face this handsome foe
Let someone else have that honour if it is so to be
This disciplined nation must be chased back across the sea
She envisions being burnt at the stake
this affair is a mistake
The urges of the flesh driven by the heart overcomes all rational decisions
She will make herself face the approaching legions
She leads her army with hearty cries
The battle rages but she is beaten from within
In the time she lives there is guilt but no sin
she witnesses her trusted wolfhound as it is cut down and dies
in defeat she holds her head high
her legionnaire also survives..they carry their secret
and go to meet their fate
in another life they might have been each others mate.
