Silver bells on her anklets bright
Gem encrusted bracelets glowing
Khole shadowed eyes always knowing
She smiles at the star studded night
Guards stand before a massive door
A sharp knock signals she awaits
He appears, their eyes contemplate
Escorting her, rugs on the floor
Clan leader, he notes her beauty
She likes his rugged appearance
Their marriage seals an alliance
Glances – love may conquer duty
