Granddaddy Ravenclaw | | Jermione Granger Drabble #4, Theme #30 Feast
Mother
If Hogwarts could speak, she would tell you of the feasts. Of the smells that waft up from the kitchen long before the Headmaster begins to speak. Of the palpable excitement that exudes from students as they enter. Of what a great joy it has been to watch them.
If Hogwarts could speak, she would tell you that alma mater isn't just a phrase; it is her sacred charge. And she would tell you that she has sometimes failed in it.
But today, as a new class awaits, she would tell you of the feast, waiting just beyond those doors.

Close your eyes Let the melody carry you
Leave all your fears behind You can float across a rainbow sky
