She was a legendary flower of two,
A beauty known throughout the land,
Captured the sight and heart of a charming young man.
The brilliant and handsome strategist of Wu,
The talented and well versed, Zhou Yu.
Still a child she was
So pure of heart
Naïve as she could be
But was all that enough?
To capture the heart of which was he?
A man with looks and heart to match,
He surely was a great catch.
An intelligent mind, poetry of tongues,
Surely no one predicted
That in the end, this child had won.
She captivated his heart
She ruled over his mind
All from the very start,
She was one of a kind.
He had to have her as his own
Someone with whom he could form a home,
He chosen her above all else
All he wanted was to have her for himself.
He loved her truly with all his heart
Never did he want them to be torn apart.
The young Flower was surprised
At Zhou Yu’s sudden proposal thought,
That such news had been brought
Before her and have to be heard,
Above all others, he had chosen her.
To walk beside him on the road of life,
Together; as husband and wife.
It was said she was the cause of one great battle at sea,
This infamous battle of Chi Bi.
The enemy Warlord wanted the beauty for his own,
Possibly to become his wife to his tyrant throne.
Were these rumors lies or were they true?
No matter what, it enraged the warrior spirit of Zhou Yu.
Into battle he went and fought though enemy lines,
Keeping the vision of his flower, in the back of his mind.
He wouldn’t lose her to another,
he wouldn’t stand for that.
The Battle raged on through the night,
Only to have the enemy loose to Zhou Yu’s might.
Victoriously he returned his beauty,
As happy as she could have ever be,
Ran to his arms and into a tight embrace,
With tears flowing down her porcelain face.
She believed he would return to her again,
Never did her trust or belief falter.
She would continue to be by his side, now and forever
Their days were filled with happiness,
Where ever he went, there she would be,
Full of laughter and a smile, for all the world to see.
She was there through sickness and in health.
Through the good times and the bitter strife,
Up until the day sickness would take his life.
Deeply grieved over her loss,
Her only love, now gone from this world,
The one man who transformed her into a woman,
From a once naïve little girl.
Always will she remember her love,
Who now resides with the stars above.
Forever in her heart she remained loyal and true,
This was the innocent love of
Xiao Qiao and her beloved Zhou Yu.
