This Day As It Was: 26th Day of the 10th Month

This day as it was, not so many years ago, 
When the heaven was ever in a stressful mode   
Some of heaven's angels rerouted to trek earth to and fro 
In search for the right parents they could ever unfold. 

"Today is so special!" a seraph declared 
"A darling amongst us is terrestrial-bound", 
The heavenly legion giggled in cheer 
Awakening the limbo with its boisterous sound. 

Swift as a lightning their search made intense 
Surging from sunbeam; through dust; and through rain; 
Impatiently waiting for the news they brought in 
The seraph would bark, Oh where have you been? 

"In a tropical island, shaped like a sword, 
We found a humble couple with a noble accord" 
"Oh tell me quickly where exactly they be found?" 
"Somewhere in the coastline of a northernmost town" 

Heavenly tension was ever as the natal-hour was nigh 
Euphoria subsided as it was now mixed with fear. 
The world is deceitful – she may be tricked of some lies 
Things that should not be, as free soul, she would dare. 

The angels' notions overtime become true 
A demon deceived her with his built and galore 
Misery was waiting without her having a cue 
Battered! She had to leave with her offspring of four. 

And it came to pass that we both prayed in the dark 
Tearful and shivering that the heaven should hark. 
Heaven has its senses through ages ever sharp 
From our own different places God heard what we asked. 

That for two weeks in my lifetime, on my life's second score 
She came in my daydream, that I promptly would adore 
Bewitched me with the charm, bringing the same cheers 
When she was born on the 26th day of the 10th month of that very blissful year 

Soon it's time for me to wake up to the usual life I've known; 
The dream I had is over but somehow not forlorn. 
I missed the maiden truly; in her I found a home. 
I cherish the dream and its memory when I am most alone.

The night of October 25 to October 26 was a very long night as sleep 
was so illusive.  There was an aching of my heart that was beyond my 
comprehension. I needed to be tired that I resorted on utilizing my ever awake 
senses to go beyond the conventional and think of something to write as 
if things are happening to me in fact.
