The Mischievous Smile

As I sit to write today, with a paper, ink, and quill,

Down my spine runs a very sharp chill!

‘Coz today I am about to reveal

A secret that lies deep in my heart,

That I often dream of an old castle,

Down a lonely road somewhere afar….

As I enter the castle, the old door creaks,

The wind howls and the windows bang,

Cobwebs cover the empty space,

In a grand hall where once angels sang.

As I climb the stairs up to a lone door,

And open it fearing what my eyes will meet,

A sparkle of precious rubies, emeralds, and diamonds,

Fill the room, and fragrance sweet.

As the morning sun peeps through my window,

And wakes me up the next day,

I remember the mysterious treasure that I saw,

And it makes me smile the whole day!
