The Snitch and the Seeker

The qolden snitch is lost in the air A lost, that no one ever could bear The seekers are out on rides of Sauron They look furious and won't move-on A storm is certain, the clouds are howeing The flakes turn blizzard, the lightning roaring Hey, where is the snitch ___ where did it go? How come the seekers couldn't get to know? Far from the world, up in a valley A Potter is out on the quest already The Chrysalis gives him the Phoenix wings And here he goes up in the winds Those wings have the key to break away The curse They cause once on the bay He has to find it before they do She is trying hard, she knows it too A swish in the air, a snitch being chased He dives in, take the leads in haste A battle erupts, the storm getting violent But he catches the snitch and passes like lightning In a hidden cave he open his hand Flap his wings and cover snitch's face Thunders striking, winds whipping, trees cracking Something new is nearly unwrapping A boom.. And the transformation completes There now lays a pretty lady whom he greets The curse is gone It's now a never ending dawn For she is a snitch... a charmer For he a seeker and a keeper First beams of sun touches their skin As they fly high in sky and Wind plays violin (Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings fans will find so many allusions here) (Paghunda Zahid 16th May, 2022)
