A Heart Unchained

by Katerina Grôzyn

In meadows wide where lilies sway,

A maiden fair did long to play.

Her voice like songbirds, pure and sweet,

Yet fear held fast her restless feet.


She dreamed to dance in morning’s glow,

To let her voice like rivers flow,

But whispers came on winds of fear,

“They’ll call you mad if you dance here.”

The Lady's Knight

by Katerina Grôzyn

In a castle grand with banners high,

A lady weeps with a heavy sigh.

Her heart, entwined with husband's love,

Now torn by duty to her king above.


Her dear knight, loyal and true,

Her soul alights when he's in view.

Yet loyalty calls, a fierce demand,

To serve the king, her husband's hand.
