Undeniable there she lay
\n2000 years
\nEssentially
\nHer eyes were face downwards, she
\nHer quartzite eyes perpetually
\nSearching through the peaty realms
\nWhere Oblivion just overwhelms
\nThe spirit cancels out the light
\nIntrinsically forced to bite
\nDown on spagnum moss of old
\nAn inherency or so I am told<\/p>\n
Being aware of the flowing loch
\nAnd related ericaceous stock
\nSedges green that would provide
\nA bed of peat in which to hide
\nHewn from alder hard yet straight
\nGrain fulfilling every trait
\nRescued back in 1880
\nA childs height so not that weighty
\nA world of difference having fell
\nWhat turned out to be a spell
\nOf two thousand years
\nOf contemplation
\nPossibly a transformation
\nRecalling light
\nBut seeing darkness
\nBallachulish goddess
\nMaybe
\nOrientation of the night<\/p>\n
A large right eye staring directly
\nUnwaveringly perhaps correctly
\nA small left eye invokes a state
\nOf dreaming to potentiate
\nA conscious thought, a sequel to
\n2000 years held good and true
\nThe ground in which the lass did lay
\nSaw cairns and barrows rituals play
\nSharing the peaceful unity
\nAnd the true divinity.<\/p>\n
