Having realized a cherished dream of wandering midst the ancient ruins of Italy, Greece and Turkey, I was both saddened to see firsthand the widespread destruction of goddess temples, yet blessed to feel the presence of our dethroned Moon goddesses everywhere... The Temple of Artemis (550BC-526AD) ruins (located between Ephesus and Izmir, Turkey) is one compeling example of the mystical magic that lingers still! May the promised harmony of yin-yang balance yet be realized...




Ancient Ephesus
Marbled roads of layered past
Artemis abides

Carolyn ...

Another delightful write that speaks volumes in so succinct a way. Your reference to Artemis, the Greek Mythological goddess of the hunt and the moon, daughter of Leto, added to the mystery. Brava!

Light and Wisdom ...

All of the old temples are in ruin. We have one temple in Malta built underground. How they managed to do it is beyond me. Their goddess was that of Fertility. It is unique. Victor

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
