A leaf of the palm, borne as a symbol of victory <br />But you are isolated like me, <br />Though we are tall like a Watchtower yet cannot touch the pallid sky. <br />You have a simple stem and terminal crown of large leaves. <br />But I am uprooted in the saga and and my broken crown pawned for a song. <br /> <br />Dedication to the deceased Marxist Sri Lankan celebrated singer *Gunadasa.Kapuge<br /><br />nimal dunuhinga<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/my-lonely-palm-tree/
