As The Maid Was Old

As The Maid was old
She now seldom ran
Why The Urgency!
What was Manu's plan

Come sit for awhile
He said with a smile
He perceived the anxiety
She'd been battling for awhile

.......what is the matter
He asked with concern
Life is a journey
Upon which we learn

Her head was bowed low
He could see a small tear
Oh so faithful, he said
You are always here

.......five young owls
Were banging on the door
As she stood to welcome them
Manu spoke. "No more!"

.......sit with me
We have much to share
When we are finished
They will still be there

.......a hallowed time together
They shared that day
As Manu had revealed
They did not go away

The Maid refreshed
Sang joyfully
Because she had rested
Obediently 💜💫💜
