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.
