The cryptic missive Written in ink ancient Eloquent quill scribbles Old English vocabulary Unfamiliar etymology Unknown writer Chronicled messages unclear For whom, none known Yet to be deciphered Papyrus survived And words of yesteryear On a time travel to future Wonder, if anyone had read Back in olden times Or, was it a prophecy For the future to unravel A seer with vision To foresee the future Should we be forewarned? Lest the truth was known And we are living a lie
