Another poem dedicated to my favourite Harry Potter character – Ronald Bilius Weasley. Here is the content:
Ron Weasley is known as Harry Potter’s best mate
He is not perfect
He has his flaws
But then, who is perfect?
We all have our flaws
That’s what makes us human
Coming back to Ron
He is one of the most relatable characters
In the Harry Potter universe
He comes from a huge family
Where almost everyone has achieved something or the other
Ron, on the other hand
Is the Guy Next Door
Who wouldn’t stand out in a crowd
However, he more than makes up for this
With his sheer courage and loyalty
Sacrificing himself in a game of wizard chess
At the age of eleven
For the sake of his best mate
Facing his worst fears head on
And almost dying at the hands of a bunch of mammoth spiders
The very next year
Again, for the sake of his best mate
Standing up to a convicted mass murderer
That too with a broken leg
Merely a year later
Yet again, for the sake of his best mate
Bravely fighting a group of powerful Death Eaters
Two years later
For the sake of his best mate’s godfather
And finally
Accompanying his best mate on a life-or-death mission
Two years down the line
In order to save the wizarding world
Ron is truly a worthy Gryffindor
And apart from his bravery
Ron is also an excellent Quidditch Keeper
Whose performance is instrumental
In securing some of Gryffindor’s finest victories
Also, no one can beat Ron at wizard chess
However, Ron does have his bad moments too
Thanks mainly to his insecurities
The fights with Hermione over his pet rat Scabbers
Who ultimately turns out to be an Animagus
The fallout with Harry
After his name comes out of the Goblet of Fire
The Ugly Yule Ball episode with Hermione
And his jealousy of her date Viktor Krum
The whole Lavender-Hermione fiasco
And finally
Abandoning Harry and Hermione briefly
During the previously mentioned life-or-death mission
Yes, Ron is not perfect
But that’s what makes him so relatable
Along with his rather goofy sense of humour
I can never forget this memorable line
“Can I have a look at Uranus too, Lavender?”
Oh Ron,
You can be absolutely maddening sometimes
But you are the character
To whom I can relate the most
In the world of Harry Potter
And I will gladly defend you
Tooth and nail
Till my dying breath
