The King of Wands

The King of Wands

 

Garbed as a lion, with a decorated cape

Upon his shoulders down does drape

Nobility lies in the office, not the man

Who but lives it out in his lifespan

A wooden wand in flower blooms

Is held by hand, as his heirlooms

Authority is vested in him, not his own

Sitting honestly upon his throne

The King is the title, not the name

As the Coronation does proclaim.
