Whole ages have fled and their works decayed,
And nations have scattered been;
But the stout old Ivy shall never fade,
From its hale and hearty green.
The brave old plant, in its lonely days,
Shall fatten upon the past:
For the stateliest building man can raise
Is the Ivy's food at last.
Creeping on where time has been,
A rare old plant is the Ivy green.
- 'The Ivy Green' Charles Dickens


The ivy creeping over the wall of the graveyard. I'd spotted it yesterday and was pleased I remembered about it :)
