Ancient Stones, Newgrange


These ancient stones bear witness
To burial rituals 
Thousands of years ago
Their symbolic meaning
Lost in the mists of time.

One of a kerb of 97 stones that surround the tomb at Newgrange
Some say the spiral represent the sun
Symbolic here
It strikes through the tomb
To the burial chamber each winter solstice.

This stone stands near the entrance
A silent sentinel
To the lost mysteries of time.
