Broken panes
Of a mansion still
Welcome in light
At its window sill
Just as it has
O’er the years
Through dreams and cheers
Love and tears;
Chills and drags,
A rainy haze
Climbers, blooms
And simmering days
Weathered walls
And crumbling towers
Parched and cooled
By fitful showers..
.
Smiling at me
Stand ageing friends three
Twilight,
Autumn leaves
And the old man-
Sion.
