Ghaliya bin Jusef - Order of the Keystone Æthelmearc

Ghaliya bin Jusef’s been found a treasure,

Located in the Kingdom Æthelmearc 

One whose passionate drive fits the measure 

Royals Oliver and Grainne have marked

Her for assiduously working 

And she is one who has reached a benchmark

For prepping and cleaning, never shirking 

Myriad tasks landing from dusk to dawn

Managing to frolic with the bowstring

Thus Our Majesties, prompted to action

Today present Ghaliya the Keystone

At Pennsic! These annals have been set on

This August 2nd, As it is now known

And given with all trimmings and trappings

Of Armaments, as is Our great pleasure

As Royalty and pulls on Our heartstrings

Done Anno Societatis, Sixty One

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier

I know that the clubs are weapons of war

I know that diamonds mean money for this art

But that's not the shape of my heart

That's not the shape

The shape of my BLOG
