Crown
CROWN
======
I looked at an image of Christ.
His crown carried the sins of the world,
No gems or gold but valuable messages.
A crown of thorn on a humble man,
Leaves everlasting memory.
I looked at the king's picture.
The crown on his head bedecked with gems,
It showed the value of the wearer.
A crown of gold on a ruler,
Leaves some memory .
I looked at a crown in an antique shop,
It had numerous stories to tell,
Popular time of its life is gone,
A crown on a shelf of an old shop,
Leaves no memory .
