Ramandu's Daughter recounts her life before and after she marries
Caspian X. Told in Verse.
This poem was kind of a fly in my ear when I went to bed last night, and this morning I decided to write it down. It’s the story of Ramandu’s daughter, of her life watching the far west and how she met and married Caspian, told through her eyes. It's kind of a summary of the first four Narnia books. Not actually owning three of those books, however, might have influenced the canonical merit of this piece. Forgive me.
The rhyme scheme and pacing were borrowed from Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’s “The Skeleton in Armor,” one of my favorite poems by him. |
