Supposed to be at the battlefield;
Wrought irony,
His gaze shy not of the royal lust,
Late afternoon at the palace,
Beauty espied by lustful eyes of the royal admirer,
Eyes turn darker by guilty thoughts.
A summon to the palace,
Lest no one deny
A Rembrandt nude she was,
Never knew that she was an innocent bather,
One that caused a stir at the palace.
Awed by his mighty reign she couldn\'t oppose,
A Royal Jewel, favoured by The King\'s Gaze.
An expansive room stared mocking at her,
‘Deny me not’ The King spoke
She said‘ All done against Uriah is sin, My King’,
‘ Then let me taste my sin’ , King spoke,
Thoughts read from his piercing gaze.
With the letter Uriah was slain,
How can a man so great in power express such abhorrence of sin?
Yet be reconciled to it.
Story of The King & the Beguiling innocent seductress.
David In Love & War.
The King\'s Gaze.
