Once upon a time, I met a King

 

Once upon a time, I met a King 

A King who had no diamond studded crown

Instead, his inner beauty shined through the crowd

His skin told the story of his unique path to kingship 

Out of his beard grew wisdom and honor 

Out of his gut unfolded his manhood 

His heart poured out love and sacrifice 

And with his hands, he toiled with obedience to serve his family and loved ones 

Once upon a time, I met a King 

A King with no rubies nor gold

Yet, his very presence made me feel safe, free and bold

This King did not come to take, destroy nor to impose a toll

Nah, this King came to share, care and uphold

Ohhh... if only you knew who he really was

This King right here, you would never disregard 

Yes, once upon a time, I met a True King

Not a spider, lizard nor any creepy crawly little thing

A Real Man who understood who he was and most importantly, who he certainly is

A True King, no enemy could diss, shake down nor possess

Once upon a time, I met mi Amor de Rey

Humble enough to stand tall

Strong enough to stand back 

Wise enough to know when

Yes, I once met a King

A King who made me believe in love, goodness and joy again.
