Crown of Thorns



What replaced the "Crown of Thorns" without the leaves?

Dried old branches from golden-rust autumn trees.

A royal purple hue immulated from a tree, a praying head like that of a Messiah.

A shadow of a long, black hair maiden appears behind, in another tree; reaching up higher.

Out dashed a jackrabbit with all of his might;

When saw the purple iridescent light.

A bright white light, appears in The Passage. Yes.
Where a soul venture in, to get some rest.
