The autumn rain, continued to pour the drops in windy this morning,
On the hill of the royal family, a lonely breeze blows on the brae.
Only the millennium tree, where ancient traces have faded away,
As if trying to convey, it scatters drops by waving boughs and greeting.

tombs of life's now dismissed
as worthless and archaic
They at least had posterity
in mind
Now, we don't even consider
children
as worth investing-in, instead
left to do their thing, allowed
to be corrupted
by society's trappings, easily
no school trips
no subjects studying heritage
just tick-tock's
and prying vultures taking
advantage
watching it all, grass grows
celebrating
wind and rain and freedom
like all its ancestors before
satisfied
by just being a continuation
of an unbroken legacy
Hi! L.B.
Thank you for your kind comments. The tombs was composed almost 2 thousands years before, where the old dynasty's capital was located. So many relics were discovered at the old tombs.
Have a nice day! BR.
