Kingdoms rise and fall <br />Kings reign and die <br />And never is any eternal that be earthly <br />Do not think <br />That thou shall be forever <br />Princes where before thee <br />Great ones at that; <br />Who slew beasts by hand <br />Subdued mighty armies by the sword <br />And princes after thee shall be <br />Do therefore thine best <br />That thy name be remembered <br />In many generations after… <br />’’I have served my time <br />I have honoured my kingdom <br />And now I go on…’’<br /><br />nicholas boateng<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/kings-5/
