Chalice of life



On the horizon the sun was set.
Like a shiny wooden chalice of water about to sip the giant waters of an ocean sized kingdom.
The people were preparing their new queen and the flourish of life was building up to this moment.
The wedding went ahead, everybody celebrated their love and commitment to each other at the alter of King Sollomen himself with song and festivities, wine and feasted until their stomachs burst, praising their God in a tidal wave of cheer that lasted so long it pierced its way through the heavens bringing stars of angels to the birth of the first set of three children.
