Elder's Vigil
Reflection
In the stillness of the night, an elder's gaze pierces the veil,
A sentinel of stories, woven in every line and tale.
The feathered crown, a symbol of wisdom and might,
Guards the secrets of the past, in the silence of the night.
The painted face, a canvas of a life lived,
A testament to trials, and the strength that's given.
The earrings whisper tales of a culture rich and old,
A heritage that's passed down, like the stories told.
In the darkness, a light shines bright and true,
A beacon of hope, for me and you.
The elder's vigil, a watchful eye,
Guards the traditions, and the stories that never die.
