The Damsel’s Morning Delight.



-->
As the sun triumphs over the duskiness of the ebony night
Blushing the sky with colors vanquishing the deepest dyes
The damsel lying under the covers slowly opens her sleepy eyes
To the beauty unseen before; the purity of the morning delight
She reaches out to the window and pulls the curtains aside
Listening to the melody of the chirruping birds outside
And somewhere back in the memory, there’s an echo of a distant guy
Whose abode is the neverland and who travels to the wonderland each day to cry
To cry out to the birds in the wild blue skies
To play the divine symphony for the damsel and to fly
What a day it is! She thinks and she shyly smiles
Is this a new dawn, a reality or a fable that would soon die
The dewy tears run down her cheeks, she wipes them off and sighs
Leaving the riddle unsolved and open
The riddle behind the damsel’s morning delight!
This poem is dedicated to a wonderful friend (also known as the incredible hulk by his loved ones) who inspired me to write after a long hiatus. And let me thank Kerrie for allowing me to use one of the beautiful images from her creative collection.

Happy Reading!

This is true to life. Most riddles go unsolved I would say. This was fun to read and then to find out what your (or who) your inspiration was. I'm glad you started writing again.
