Stone Circle Mystery

My new poem "Stone Circle Mystery". John Phoenix Hutchinson (C)2012 You are standing at the heart of an ancient mystical stone circle.

 Stone Circle Mystery.   


Time has no implication, no symbolization here.

Within the circle of the standing stones, you are immune.

 Body engaged, entwined with the earth, held captivated.

Standing more like a statue, than the stones themselves.

In this captured space the significance of spirit soars.

Mystical magnificence invigorates, motivates the soul.

You are singular in the universal metropolis and centre of the all.

The solar and lunar tides sweep over you, a torrent of emotion.

Lost in a flood of sensation, elated passion for life.

Overwhelmed by the vast domain of never ending space.

Your heart is renewed and you enter heavenly innocence.

Your poem spotlights an interesting feature found throughout man's civilization. Humans were created with a need for spirituality. This is reflected in the artifacts and ruins of countless tribes and cultures all over the world. Who knows but that a future archeologist may see the foundation ruins of a large sporting arena and conclude that people must have worshiped Tigers, Lions or Dolphins?

[John Phoenix Hutchinson.]

Yes that's very true and I love that archeologist concept! :)

[Geraldine]

That made me feel like I am on the ancient times. :)) It is indeed mysterious and very nice imagery. Well-done.

[John Phoenix Hutchinson.]

Thanks so much "G" :)

More of the mystery of bringing in the circle - the coven... I have started Chapter 3. And am about half way though. I am liking these poems in between, it is filling in some of the questions of the plot, and at the same time adding to the mystery of what is to come. I love the picture, it brings so much - makes it a reality. I think for people to really understand the full depth of this you really need to read your chapters that you have posted thus far. With each piece I read I am more entranced by the depth and creativity of your mind, and it is mind blowing that you only started writing just a few months ago. The explanation you bring to this piece is awesome, as I gathered from the ending of chapter 2 and what I have read of chapter 3 what this place is.
I see you have added the piece on Melvina to Chapter 3, which is brings a great intro to the chapter. Do we have this piece to look forward to in a coming chapter??? Excellent write!

Such divinity is shared within the circle. There is a sacred place near my home where the Native Americans have a stone circle.. sometimes I just go lay in the middle and feel the energy that has been shared there.. It's then that I feel the most connected to the universe in my human heart..xo

Such it is with Castlerigg Stone Circle. Have visited many circles in UK this one though is particulary powerful
