Tears rolling off his eyes, sat Apollo
On the long green pinnate palm leaf
Looking at the empty pinna on which hung
His nest and Daphne's, until a few days ago.
His friend Bri came and sat beside him
'Look Aps, I have completed my first nest
And it is occupied by my first fiancée.
I have started work on another one, you see.'
Bri took his hand in his and spoke again
'Stop worrying and start weaving a nest
On the same tree, same pinna, afresh.
I have informed Daphne what happened.
'Though she does seem to believe you,
We shall go back to her when it's ready
And propose her once again, I hope
she understands your love and agrees.
'Or else, we will accept the first female
Who proposes to you; that's what we do.'
Now Aps got really angry, 'I shall have
My Daphne or no one. That's my word.'
