Seven stars are shining
As the sun falls from the sky
Six rooks dance their goodnight dance
And wish the day goodbye
Five bats skim the castle walls
Waiting for the bell
For soon the moon will break the news
It’s waited long to tell
Four owls leave the tower tall
Hungry to spread the word
To wit, to woo a mouse or two
In case you haven’t heard
Three horses in the courtyard
Beneath the flickering light
Two men exchange quiet glances
And ride into the night
And deep within the castle
In the centre of the keep
One maiden lies alone, alone
And tries to get to sleep

Ha ha! Sounds like she needs a good set of ear plugs! What happened to the six car alarms?
Great stuff, as the turkey said!
