A/N - Hello everyone! My goodness it's been a long time since I've last written. 5 years and 24 days since I've last uploaded. Gosh. Well, at one point, some people were wondering if they had missed a poem in this sonnet sequence on Susan since I had the other three. Nope, she was not working with me. A few weeks ago I found a tumblr account that was doing Bible verse prompts for fan media. I chose one last week and started wrestling with Susan. I finished it yesterday! Thanks to Lady of Stormness Mountain for betaing!

"May those who sow in tears reap with shouts of joy." - Psalm 126:5 NRSVC

"Reaping Joy"

Crystal tears pour from ice blue eyes unrestrained
as the queen's forlorn gaze is held frozen
by the sight of her family's remains.
Wounds she thought were healed open once again.

A heart torn and left in shreds. Oh, who could
pick up the pieces and gently heal her?
Her eyes snap to the cross; feels as if she stood
at its foot – for good reason. "I'm a traitor!"

"Aslan," she cries, having missed His name. "Can
You ever forgive me for forgetting
You are my King no matter where I am?"
A purr stirs her heart, and she begins healing.

Rejoice, O Narnia! This day has found
the rejoining of the Gentle Queen to her crown!
