The Baton


Time is heard on distant hills
As it echoes tales that peel the heavens.
The universe stands still
At the mention of the name.
Heroes past voiced glories of the same.
Now the time has finally come,
When a young generation takes that baton
And runs with it
To uphold her honor and sovereignty,
And verse intimations of her immortality.
