Stories

 Cave Paintings, Papyrus, Leaves

Stone seals from the Indus,

Paper scribbles, wood, ink in a pot,

Stories of the Past, present and future,

Stories that have been told before.

And shall be told yet again.

Of Might, Greed, Chivalry and Romance;

Love, Lust, Bravery and Treason.

Lessons learnt, characters discovered,

Civilisation gone, relics unearthed

Yet, every time you repeat a loop,

Of a vicious circle of mistakes

And nod your head to say,

"History repeats itself."
