Author's note:
Hey there, it's Veneto. I'm really stoked to share this book with you. I gave it my all, but to be honest, it's my first time writing a "Narrative Poem". Nevertheless, I'm taking a shot at it, and I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I did writing it.
Also, I'm currently working an anthology of my poems titled "Untold Heart". It delves into the theme of crushes and love. I'm just getting started, but I hope it piques your interest. I'd be grateful if you'd give it a read.
I'll keep updating this story, as I always do for any changes or improvements. I'll let you know when the updates are finished.
That's all for now. Have a great day, and happy reading!💜💜

Prologue
The setting
In the heart of a village, a castle stands tall,
Its lord dwelling within its protected walls.
Four blocks tower around, like guardians of old,
As the castle shines bright, its light captivating and bold.
On the ground below, the people bustle and thrive,
Houses and businesses abound, a market alive.
All around the castle, buildings of rock and stone,
Incorporate the town, as if they were one and alone.
The noise and the crowds fill the streets every day,
As people flock to the markets, to work and to play.
The ground beneath their feet, ancient and wise,
A witness to the village's growth and its rise.
In this place of wonder, of history and grace,
The village thrives, a vibrant and lively place.
And as the castle stands tall, watching over all,
The town below continues to answer its call.
