//------------------------------// // Sonnet 15 // Story: The Sisters' Coronet // by Fable Scroll //------------------------------// New dawn reveals the paths of steadfast aim Through fallen walls of ancient nations' keeps. The crumbling stone holds words of paling fame And woeful strife eternal mourners weep. Remembered days leave tracks to future sweep; Their weathered signs reveal deceiving ways. The heirs rebuild on ruined glory's heap To claim what foolish greed had cast astray. On slippery ground and ancestor's decay They craft a stronger home to brave the world, Securely resting on the works of older days To walk the brighter path the past unfurled. Reborn on time-worn stones, new kin succeed And joyously embrace new hope's clear lead.
