The Warrior Prince

The Warrior Prince, Prince Edward of Woodstock


The Royals Who Actually Do Something are not like the rest:  These are royalties that act.  I have met few of them in my social circles.  As social acquaintances and unlike others, the royals actually do something at the face of adversity.  Few I have met:  Warrior Prince, The Bad-Ass Princess, The Rebellious Princess.  

WOW.  The Royals are people of social ranks that garner advanced training . . . and look out, their bad-assery surpasses averages.  A public figure, for example, is the late Princess Diana, a Politically Active Princess.  Wed to a family of British Parliament, Princess Diana found herself alone in the big palace; subsequently, her relationship with her husband went quickly sour and they divorced.  But she overcame her adversity by giving to charitable causes, making speeches on their behalf, and becoming publicly known as the people's princess.  But Princess Diana never found her prince.  If Royals do not come from wealth, they have attained a scholarship to a university.  Those I've met are often paired with the wrong partner, mismatched.  They are the ones pulling in the resources, carrying the burden of the relationship.  The late Audrey Hepburn is another example of a Royal Princess who won an Oscar in her first movie, Roman Holiday.  That is bad-assery.  But Hepburn also supported her father until his death, even though he had no regard for people.  Heartbreaking.  Her spouses?  Wait, who were they?  And in her later years, Hepburn gave back big time by becoming a spokesperson for UNICEF, driving awareness to the organization.  

These Royal Princesses had done something generous for social or charitable causes just by lending their name and fame.  Like ladies who are married and/or in a relationship with the wrong man, the Royals fare better with a worthy partner.

The Warrior Prince I met had a good handling of people and his people skills stand apart from the rest:

The Warrior Prince

Who hath the prestige to defend thy kingdom?

It is he, the warrior prince, who steps in front, sturdy,

Thou poise with dignified being, towering thy region,

He poses, an unflagging poise like a breeze which is balmy,

Thou carry a bastion apart from other rank, file,

And carry a parlance which warms and enlivens,

And that binds other men to flank,

Thy company sets, for thou utter chimes that enlightens,

I am carried as a seafarer sailing in gentle waters,

Thy courtly bearing is cavalier like Charles I’s men of England,

And thy words salves open wounds of oceans of men,

Oceans of men who without course to steer the tides,

Thus thy alliance is favored and in high regard,

For they hath confidence in thy head, so to thee, they pledge.
