The Emperor

A return to my sequence of Tarot card themed poems...

The Emperor


Solomon took upon this mantle in time past
The Emperor, over all while his rule last
Seated on the Tetragrammaton in throne
The seeing artefact in form of stone
The lord of thought perceiving wisdom
The power of his mind in freedom
Reflecting the Ancient of Days in might
With sceptre and globe within his sight
His domain realises all heaven and earth
In stewardship is bound his girth.
