Stark on the Wilshire skyline Lean the monoliths of mystery Marshalled by the Heel Stone Sentinels guard a secret Which mocks the mind of man ~ Huddles of academics With puny trowels and theories Probe the dusty chalk lands Scratching for the key That picks the lock of time ~ Come all you followers In your robes of worship Circle round the blue stones As ghosts of the ancients Dance in the Pagan fire * * * |

Looks like the brilliance of the brilliant could get a "fix" on the Stonehenge to me. The answer to their intensive plodding could very well be something very simple, "we did it for fun stacking rocks. Big rocks, but still rocks." ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |

Nice aspect Cari. Lots of great images of those in the time. Eric true love never looks after it's own interests |
