Ancient Citadel
Reflection
In the realm of ancient stones, where history whispers tales of old,
Two citadels stand, their grandeur never to grow cold.
The topmost, a sepia-hued dream, with walls that rise so high,
A fortress built on verdant hills, where clouds drift lazily by.
Its architecture a testament to a bygone era's might,
A symbol of power, a beacon in the fading light.
The lower, in monochrome grace, a city by the river's flow,
Where ancient structures tell the stories of a civilization's glow.
The river below, a lifeline, where boats and people roam,
A bustling scene, a dance of life, in this historic home.
Both scenes, a window to the past, a glimpse of what's been,
A reminder of the beauty that our ancestors have penned.
In their stones, their walls, their grandeur, we find our own tale,
A reflection of our dreams, our struggles, our never-ending gale.
