The Royal Castle




In a, Once Royal, dejected palace
A mason was summoned and hence he came
Putting the portraits of The Royal Heritage on its walls, was his aim
He promised Lady Sheen to begin the task next dawn without any fail,
He shall hence come back with Hammer & Nail
Next day, before the first spark of sun, he left his tiny shack
With all the necessary tools, packed in his tattered sack
People on his way,
Would Often say-
Truos, careful!  Your hammer will fall off from that frayed sack anytime”
He always replied, “Like me, it is going to hang in there for some more time”
Good with directions, he reached the palace on his own and decided to begin from the side
That was bright with first sparks of natural light
As he hammered the first nail into the feeble wall
Masses of broken bricks and cement filled one side of the hall
Terrified by what he did to the royal heritage the hall stood for
He wondered should he tell Lady Sheen what she will surely abhor
Or run away and come back later and act in wonder to the masses of stone
And say “may be, in contrast to our wishes, Mighty wind’s power & will is more”
He thus planned to run away,
Come back later in the noon, and act in surprise in Lady Sheen’s sway
Later in the noon he met Lady Sheen and expressed that he was under the weather all this while
Hence could not begin the work in the morning erstwhile
Unaware of what had really happened, Lady Sheen   took him to the Dejected Palace as he covered his tremble in vain
But his pupils dilated as he saw the palace upright again
He thankfully realized it must have been a dream so obscure
Was it fiction or reality, he could not be sure
Lady Sheen thus left him there
He was relieved at all of it it being a trance than thinking that it was a dream of despair
But the Centuries old wandering souls in the Palace decided to take him for a ride
He had ruined their long standing abode, their shrine
He was only a step into the palace when he suddenly decided to run back to Lady Sheen
Because right in the middle of the flapping huge doors, he saw his own Hammer hung in between!!!
