I take a walk through the park and find a small spot beside the rippling waters of the brook. For a change it is sunny today and there is heat in the giant ball of fire-it touches my skin and I embrace the heat.

I decided to take a walk on this beautiful sunny day, the warmth beating down on my skin, as I walk slowly, for I feel like I am carrying a small watermelon, I hear water hitting against some rocks ..I continue walking, as I see someone else from a distance admiring the stream...

I hear the soft pad of foot steps beside me and I glance up. I see a young woman-with kind eyes and a swelling belly. I smile softly and nod my head,"Good day, my lady..."

As I get closer, the young lady glanced up, she had a genuine smile upon her face, she nodded her head and said ,"Good day, my lady...", I smiled back at her "Hello, How are you doing today, my lady".

I grin and bow my head again as I can tell she must be a woman of note by her beautiful gown,"I am very well this day my lady...and what of you?"

She smiles and nods her head again, "I am very well this day my lady...and what of you? "I am glad to hear that it is too beautiful day to be sad" looking to her with sparkle in my eyes, and a smile on my face " I am very well considering", looking down at my belly, gently caressing it," this will be our first, my Husband and I are very thrilled, and I am sorry may I know your name"..

Looking at smiling at her" Thank you so much, I can imagine that they are very happy, I am hoping for a son to give my husband and heir"..
"Very nice to meet you Lady Elizabeth", I pause for a minute hesitant to reveal I am a Queen, for people act different, " My name is Liliana, married to James the King of Scotland"...

"Oh they are-simply overjoyed. I have never seen my brother so happy...or my sister in law for that matter,"I add softly and with true kindness,"I will pray that you give your husband a son and have no doubt you will."
I then gasp as I realise she is the new Queen of Scotland. I drop into a curtsey and bow my head,"Your Majesty-forgive me...I did not know."

"May I ask how long have you lived here, it is very beautiful"

I slowly rise and smile,"I have lived in England all my life however I have been in court for just under a year,"I say kindly,"I trust you now live in Scotland? I have been there before and I love it entirely...it's beautiful."

Geoffrey reached gardens with Isabella. They arrived until a tranquil stream and kept on walking slowly
This is just a little part of royal gardens, Isabella. But it's a very peaceful place. Don't you find?
