vagaries of time
majestic resplendence wanes
arched shadows eclipsed
seals the manor’s destiny
brings it under the hammer

Fantastic take, Mam. From majestic to ordinary, every dog has its day- even a building! (Hope I correctly comprehended the message conveyed here).
Your words suit the picture so well 👌

Thanks Sahana. Yup, no one is spared by the wheels of time. Each person or thing has his day of glory before eventually fading away.
