This poem was written by me, Laura Gail Sweeney, and published in the "Irish Giants Poetry Chapbook". This version is slightly different from the original version that was published 10 years ago. It is about the feeling one has when one finds herself near neolithic stones with spirals on them. At the time, I was travelling through Ireland.

Neolithic stones Majestic motions upward Bathed in fairy prances Ancients questioned the meaning Of the skies above, Many assuming they knew the truth Pertaining to solar systems and solstices, Those humans were created, Along a perilous journey That led them to Paradise In ancient spiralling motions

Great write that has a heaping helping of Irish flavor (or "flavour").
