An Ancient One has passed beyond
At 103, most of that in public life
He saw Empires rise
He saw Empires fall
He saw the best of Man
He was the Worst too
He has seen honorable men take the office of President
Sadly he saw dishonest men too
A Legend of the Silver Screen
A man imperfect as we all are
Yet Loved
Yet Respected
Farewell Elder of Humanity
I hope my generation redeems itself before we meet again beyond the veil
