Text:

"The Weathered Crown"

The crown of autumn, golden and sere,​

Lies crumpled under the soldiered year.​
The wind, with fingers both gnarled and grim,​
Plucks threads of twilight from the brim​
Of a sky grown heavy with ancient cries,​
Laden with storms and last goodbyes.

The river's tongue laps dusty stone,​

Whispering secrets long alone:​
Of kings dethroned and banners torn,​
Of seeds forgotten and fields forlorn.​
Each leaf that breaks from trembling bough​
Falls like a shattered soldier's vow.

The city walls are cracked and bowed,​

Their pomp long swallowed by the cloud.​
The streets, once bustling, now lie bare,​
A relic's sigh in the thinning air.​
And somewhere deep in a hollow well,​
Old laughter clings like a broken spell.

Yet through this aching, ruined scene,​

A stubborn sprig of clearest green​
Cracks open stone and lifts its face,​
Defiant in the crumbling place.​
Hope, it hums in a silent tongue,​
Is not a song for the old, but the young.
