Abstract

Ancient Circle:

Stones that stand in mystic ring,
Secrets of the past they bring.
Silent watchers of the sky,
Through the ages, standing high.
Shadows stretch as sun does rise,
Stonehenge, ancient, wise.
In your presence, time stands still,
Mysteries we seek to fill.

02

Abstract

Eternal Stones:

Carved by hands from long ago,
In their shadows, stories flow.
Marking time, both night and day,
Stonehenge, in your stones, we pray.
Guardians of history,
In your presence, we are free.
Eternal stones, so grand and old,
Tales of yore in silence told.

03

Abstract

Celestial Dance:

Stars align above your form,
Stonehenge in the evening warm.
Celestial dance of light and stone,
In your circle, we are known.
Ancient echoes, whispered lore,
In your midst, we seek for more.
Stonehenge, guardian of time,
Mysteries in your shadows chime.

Abstract

Stony Shenanigans:

The stones of Stonehenge stood tall,
In a circle that mystified all.
But at night they would play,
In a secret way,
Having a stone-age ball.
They'd hop and they'd skip,
In a massive stone flip.
The druids would cheer,
And draw near,
To witness the stones' funny quip.

Abstract

Rocky Revelry:

The stones of Stonehenge loved to jest,
Telling tales of an ancient quest.
"Why did the stone cross the path?"
"To avoid the druid's wrath!"
And the laughter never took rest.
The moon would shine on their play,
As they danced till the break of day.
With ancient might,
And spirits so light,
They made the night as bright as day.

Abstract

Stonehenge’s Mystery

In ancient fields where shadows fall,
Stonehenge stands, a silent call.
With stones so tall and circle's grace,
It graces the earth, a sacred place.
Stonehenge, a symbol of the past,
Holds secrets that forever last.
In every stone, a story's spun,
Of rituals old, of rising sun.
Through ages past and times unknown,
Stonehenge's mystery has grown.
A testament to days of yore,
Stonehenge's secrets we explore.

Abstract

Mystic Circle:

On Salisbury Plain where winds do wend,
Stonehenge stands, its secrets blend.
With stones so tall and ancient lore,
It whispers of the days of yore.
In circle vast, they reach the skies,
A marvel to the gazing eyes.
Stonehenge, in its solemn grace,
A symbol of a sacred place.
Through ages past, it stands so proud,
In mist and sun, in light and cloud.

08

Abstract

Eternal Stones:

Where ancient lands meet modern day,
Stonehenge holds the light at bay.
With pillars grand and shadows long,
It hums an old, eternal song.
Each stone, a tale of time's embrace,
A monument to ancient grace.
In mystic silence, it stands so bold,
A story of the times of old.
Stonehenge, in its timeless might,
Guards the secrets of the night.
