DarynA Poem by iTryToWriteAllTheTime“Boy, come here.” Tall Jane called the boy. “Be quick with it.” She threw her dirty apron Over her shoulder. Daryn, with a smile, Ran to join the ladies Along the serving Island. “It’ll be rush Time soon. Can’t wait?” “It’ll soon be time for you To leave. Lest you’ve forgotten.” Tall Jane gave him a warm Smile, came out of the serving Island, and embraced him. “To a better place then Old Jill’s Tavern.” As he disengaged, Tall Jane drew Off Daryn’s apron and serving-ware. Daryn blushed as if he were a boy being scolded. His cheeks brightened. “Have I wronged you?” Daryn asked in riposte. “There comes a time in all young Where they must find what they truly are, underneath it all. Where They find what they will take with Them through the darkness. I can’t Take you under my cloak anymore Child.” “Tazmine has her horse outside, She’ll take you out to where you Belong.” There was a slight sadness, Though Tall Jane’s face dropped Back to stonelike stillness. Whose Tazmine? Daryn thought. He looked at tall Jane with a mix Of gratuity and a warming hate. Jane walked Daryn to the door, Showing him quickly out, Pointing down the horse. Daryn heard her door lock And heard sobbing behind the door. © 2024 iTryToWriteAllTheTimeReviews
