Solstice midsummer is famous for revelry around the stones The sacred stones on Salisbury plain Laid as monuments by our ancestral people The henge of countless moons and previous seasonal wheel turns stands steadfast Silently they hold the history we crave to unravel The years of news, turmoil and worship The rising and setting of our life-giving sun The bitter cold winters, likewise winter solstice Where few find solace holding their offerings Or enjoying the feeble warmth from a far away star The nature of Stonehenge carries the enigma Which makes it special, mysterious and commands Respect, awe and love I believe like it's close neighbour Avebury The Henge will remain enigmatic A giant in the soil of the flat plains Certain to give us the love it once received from Druidic Peoples laying down their hopes and their wishes Spending time absorbing, making and mending Rekindling the connections around themselves With the earth, through this massive conduit The sacred stones everywhere hold their story Close to their chest, the mirrored knowledge That embraced the folk that built the magickal elements Will be there for ever Claiming the fascination of the masses but the respect Of few that understand the real Stonehenge

Solstice midsummer is famous for revelry around the stones The sacred stones on Salisbury plain Laid as monuments by our ancestral people The henge of countless moons and previous seasonal wheel turns stands steadfast Silently they hold the history we crave to unravel The years of news, turmoil and worship The rising and setting of our life-giving sun The bitter cold winters, likewise winter solstice Where few find solace holding their offerings Or enjoying the feeble warmth from a far away star The nature of Stonehenge carries the enigma Which makes it special, mysterious and commands Respect, awe and love I believe like it's close neighbour Avebury The Henge will remain enigmatic A giant in the soil of the flat plains Certain to give us the love it once received from Druidic Peoples laying down their hopes and their wishes Spending time absorbing, making and mending Rekindling the connections around themselves With the earth, through this massive conduit The sacred stones everywhere hold their story Close to their chest, the mirrored knowledge That embraced the folk that built the magickal elements Will be there for ever Claiming the fascination of the masses but the respect Of few that understand the real Stonehenge
