Poetry Monday

Stonehenge



Why stand you there proud megaliths?


So stony faced and grim.


All back to back and looking out


Hiding the truth within.






Your folded arms and old grey eyes,


And deeply rooted feet,


So long defied your enemies


You have no friendly greet.






We all walk round out of your reach,


Except those trained few


Who you allow to come inside,


‘Cause they’re as grey as you






I wonder if you have forgot?


You are so very old.


If time has supped your memories,


And your story stays untold.






Paddy J. P. Harris
