You led the way when I was lost
Diminished the darkness with your lights
Never thought I would miss you the most
when we had our frivolous fights.
All those nights you burnt your midnight lamp
Working hard like a bee or an ant
Was only to emerge victorious as a champ.
Proud you did me, by being triumphant
Rolling down the cheeks were my tears
the day you topped in your class.
Ripping apart my greatest fears,
You came across as a sassy lass.
You, the dainty daisy from the dawn,
Blooming with a smile on your rosy petals.
Sing, dear nightingale, sing on!
For the voice that won you medals.
Whenever I was in the melancholy
Of a dark, monstrous thunder cloud
You showed me the silver lining that made me jolly.
You, the clown that made me laugh out loud. :P
When I was kissed by a dementor,
You conjured the Patronus charm :P
So dynamic you were as my mentor
Who snatched away all the hurt and harm.
Helped me in my eternal pursuit
of knowledge and enlightenment
The ethics and values gripped to your root
Reinforced my conviction in your discernment.
Giggle, giggle, you giggled
Your giggle like a donkey's bray
The way we danced and squiggled
For your beatitude I shall pray.
Sparkles bright like a diamond your dreamy eyes
And that heart of gold.
The accolades you walked away with and the prize
Are worth the talent you sold.
You, the fairy from the heaven,
with an elegant wave of your wand
showered happiness and joy on the seven
While reading this, you shouldn't have yawned.
