Drove to Avebury today for 1 and a half hours! (6 hours of driving in **** weather), but picked up a copy of The Modern Antiquarian book - (difficult to get hold of now) and took some pics with my new camera.
I was inspired by this forum to write a poem about Silbury Hill based on my experiences during a visit in September 2007.
Trudging in Autumnal heat to visualise ancestor's feat,
of engineering, they knew how,
I wonder why, don't know right now,
The "Busy people" Ancient folk
knew how to toil, their Gods, their yolk,
but they were free in many ways,
than we, the slaves of debt and broke,
I capture pictures in the box, to paw, enhance, rotate, the lot
But when I see pixels abound, I know I travelled sacred grounds,
for their Gods call through nature's stone,
I will return, never alone.
