These ever watchful eyes have seen cycles
Of life and death. O these eyes have observed
The changing of the seasons from spring's first
Pink blossoms to winter's icy silence!
O these eyes have seen cities laid to waste!
These troubled eyes have seen empires rise and
Empires fall. They have observed many acts
Of glorious invention and many
Acts of hateful destruction. Some day these
Weary eyes will finally close and rest
As everything dissolves into the deep
Sleep of eternity; all will be one.
