The wealth of a kingdom
is worthless without wisdom.
nor a pleasing accompaniment of a majesty
in his splendid royalty
Meaningful with scarcity of loyalty.
Loyal list may be enlarged by gains
They will spring shift for a better offer!
Some are inspired by fame and glory
but loyalty rooted in sincere sacrifice and grace
is a great asset to the king.
Provision without vision
is the kingdoms greatest frustration
A killing burden, a poison.
The heart that seeks honours
And make his subject blames shield
May end up in sorrowful hollow
Kingdom with disunited stars,
Can’t and won’t stand kind success
but few that stays together
are strategically favored for greatness.
A king blessed with skill of greed
Adversities will not be scarce,
If not now, they must be taken time!
Aw king greedy of gain and glory
will build the castle of false
and prophesy of failure
Power is tempting,
He who can conquer her
has learn how to walk
unhindered in the field of thorns.
