Riddles and Rhymes


She asked in riddle
and I answered in rhyme
She asked in riddle
and I answered in rhyme
she asked what does  the setting sun says
and I answered time has come
for shadows to go home
she asked why do tears always roll down
and I answered because rivers have
 to flow towards the south
she asked why do clouds drift aimlessly
and I answered because little do they know
they have to fall down as rain

She spoke in riddle
and I reasoned in rhyme
She spoke in riddle
and I reasoned in rhyme
she spoke life is constant ebb and flow
and I reasoned there's always
 moon to pull the tide
she spoke war is won and peace is lost
and I reasoned god is in his slumber
and love is forsaken
she spoke dreams are murky and nightmares are vivid
and I reasoned rainbow rises only during the rain

I asked in riddle and
She reasoned in rhyme
I asked in riddle and
She reasoned in rhyme
I asked should our path of
endearment take leap of faith
And she reasoned sometimes
Road less traveled is
less traveled for reason
