Holiday Reflections in Verse

Challenge

By Esala GunathilakePublished about a year ago Updated about a year ago 1 min read

Thunder rumbled over the sky,

He not murmured nor did he sigh,

The little prince with no mom oh no dad,

A dog coronated him lol both were orphans,

Nose-down branches bowed to his prince,

The prince’s priest 'dog' admired the serenity,

Two crows with them peaced the sky,

Then all had their ducks in a row,

They did not let him feel alone,

Moon was hidden, the eve was brighter

With his birth fest, all were tighter,

It was the dog’s mouth, the fruit-bin brought,

Sublime affection is so much true,

The rubbish left the crows’ maws,

Turned to florets and bounced on the prince's head,

The coronation was fully succeeded,

He cuddled the three ones with once,

The crows by hands and the dog by heart,

Air fluted and stirred history into space,

Anyone passes hitting the scent!
