Monumental Mystery

 

A column built of rough hewn stone.

By whom or why remains unknown.

Half hidden by dense foliage.

A relic from a by gone age.

What it was for nobody knows

It served some purpose I suppose.

An enigma a mystery

A sacred site quite possibly.

But still it stands amongst the trees.

As it has stood for centuries.

I don’t suppose we’ll ever know

Why it was built so long ago.

Before recorded history.

Though built to last indefinitely.
