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.

Told you this was a Premier League Poem. Its partly because people can imagine standing there.....and can feel the force of your words. Like I said have 'forwarded' this one.

[John Phoenix Hutchinson.]

Am really happy with the way it turned out as this is a very special place in my heart.

I like it. I told you I have a soft spot for standing stones! The feeling of standing there was well created. I felt like it got a little wordy occasionally, read through and see what you think about that. I would have liked a line about the actual texture if the stone, everything that was included was so big in its concept it would have been cool to have one little piece that grounds this to reality.

That's all just opinion and things to think about.... Great job!

Am happy with the way this turned out as I was concentrating on the fell this particular stone circle gave me. I have been there many times and it is always spiritually enlivening to say the least!

[John Phoenix Hutchinson.]

fell = feel :)

That's awesome. I think that this is a great poem and you should be very happy with it, I just thought that if you included something like the texture of the stone it would help readers really feel it, if you know what I mean. Everything that you have is powerful and magical, I just think it'd be a nice addition to this, balance...

Great job,
have fun!

You make this poem almost like you are there standing in front of where this photo was taking, experiencing it with your soul. The way you describe it is amazing.

[John Phoenix Hutchinson.]
