I like your poem. I often look at artifacts and think of the hands that sculpted their form and content. What was in their heart? Where they hateful? Lovers? Sad? Did little children watch or were they alone in their labors? Did the things under the sterile glass case sit discarded in a forgotten corner for hundreds of years until it's importance grew with it's age until it can be called "priceless"? What a wonderful experience for you visit the cromlech! :) Hello,
