Mid-Realm Spring Crown Praise Poem 2025 - Allegra


Cerian Cantwr            


Allegra

Twist the bobbin, turn the thread
Lace forms on a pillow's bed
Prick the pattern, place the pins
So the lacy dance begins.

Spin and weave and twirl and tread
Twist the bobbin, turn the thread
Allegra steps and sides and arms
Teaching country dance's charms

Clearly heard throughout the hall
She summons those the court does call
Twist the bobbin, turn the thread
Though those Welsh names can cause dread

On stage she was Isabella
Now Arlecchino is her fella
The tourney road winds on ahead
Twist the bobbin, turn the thread
