Doge Loredano

Altın Yaprak
Forever island in your equipoise.
In salmon-pinks and silver you arose
As Venice from a ground of blue to gain
Through many years of prudence
A delicate, precarious balance.
Doge Loredano, you remain
A proud memorial of enduring grace,
And art's frail refuge in the face
Of the true foe your city can't contain,
Once her life-blood and her source of fame
Now the slow scourge of vandalising Time.
