**The Witness Tree**

In silence I stand, deep roots below,
Where winds of the centuries come and go.
Once sapling slender, now mighty, old,
With limbs of wisdom and bark of gold.

I watched the sun rise on forgotten lands,
As ancient hands sowed dreams in sands.
Empires grew, then crumbled to dust,
Their crowns of glory consumed by rust.

I heard the songs of warriors bold,
Their tales now whispers, their legends cold. ...
