Sleeping on the Job
those standing stones laying down
indeed look tired
surely they are shattered

Yeh - that's proof Stonehenge has been around too long, hasn't it, old chap?? All that real estate - look what you could do with it - Mansions, tower blocks a teeny bit of grass, a couple of swings and slide in one corner...the possibilities are endless...
Great word play, Neville.
thank you for that DD 🙂
those stepped - over, pillar's
of all, that we hope to be
allowing us to build, steadily
all, that we strive to achieve..

casino’s - shopping malls
where pyramids stood tall

Sharp observation. If you don't want to be shattered, better to be awake.
absolutely .. that'll do nicely M & M thanks a million 🙂
When erected they were very alive and majestic, and now even time has laid them down - shattered and battered
Very enjoyable post
thank you my friend .. much appreciated sir 🙂
Someone put them there for some reason. The suspense of not knowing why is reason enough for interest. Wonderful write N. ; )
I wonder if we ever know for sure .. bless you for showing interest my friend 🙂
History- one of my many passions. ; )
Tiredness can be shown in many ways but those stones have ben standing for millennia and deserve their rest.
