In Memoriam R.D.

by Bulbasaur

II

Old oak in which I used to live,

A gnarled, old, but simple thing,

To ashes quickly flames did bring --
Lord Tirek I can ne'er forgive.

I walk along the empty road

Whereon my former home did lie.

I see the charr'd remains and sigh,
Rememb'ring hearth and home of old;

And as my life around me burns

Again, I've not a solace blue,

No featherbrain, no cockatoo,
No one to hold me as I yearn

Or claim this is a dream absurd,

No one to comfort all my fears,

No one to whisper in my ears,
"This too shall pass; be reassur'd."
