Illustrious with words, few on pride,
he's out there, braving this journey called life.

Dove to fathom the vast oceans,
jumped out of mountaintops without reservations.

In twenty four hours, his influence kept growing,
His creative and unique style - appealing.

All it took was a breath of ideas, writing to exhale
tomorrow is a timeless work his pen drew today.

Latticed love in a five walled house,
brought summer from a winter's drought.
Cool words of a whisperer's tale,
from the mom's side you hail.

Your honor is the lady's palace,
of sweet love and a radiant fragrance.
All eyes shall we leave a graceful plea,
to join your domain so willingly.

Courage of a worthy knight,
sharp skilled mind and brave true heart.

No distance shall impede her wit,
tell the news across the land.
