Monody of an Eclipsed King - Garryy - 10-28-2024 Memories displaced; a lingering, bitter taste A thought passes then, 'did it all go to waste?' Trials and tribulations endured and overcome Merely to leave one wondering, 'for what was it done?' A mote of contemplation, a sliver of hope, 'In most perilous of times, there were those who cast rope,' A quintet's cradle thwarts cold with lasting warmth, In those fleeting moments, suffering's grasp was made short. One glimpse of their faces clarified it all; 'I need not crown nor throne to stand bright and tall,' Ichor pools at their feet, staining pure robes with crimson A final thought hung aloft, ' there is no greater last vision,' Death wrenched the body's hold, but the soul's claim lies with them - those who dwelt with and attended until the story's end.
