(celebrating the Celtic heritage...)

Ancient guardians
of time and secrets,
the stone giants
lean and whisper
of their youth.

Fair Celtic maidens
and handsome swain
cavorted in their shadows
singing in the dawn.

The whisperers remember
when the age was new,
and shadows had not fallen
across the broad moor.

The Standing Stones
keep well their secrets
teasing with memories
that only the dead
can know.
