Black Leaf
Down through the Valley of lilies
Lay the remains of a golden Sceptre
A Princess has once passed through this
I reckon when there was peace
For I see beside this sceptre
The gleaming glow of a golden ring
For the sun had passed it's peak thereafter
And I do long for the hearth of homely laughter
For a Moment my heart sings
I see beside this the legendary black leaf
Hardened and wrapped in parchment if you will
The Sceptre the ring the parchment the leaf all in a bag I bring
The Sceptre for royalty the ring for belief
The parchment for loyalty
Of words written in timeless relief
The crux of which was written overleaf
''Consistency is Currency''
''Time is momentary.''
