Fields of Anatolia

Anatolia is a cauldron of cultures from distant past
Many of them millenniums would last
As Gobekli Tepe its shadow will cast
It leads through gates to the past

The Hittites iron and chariot invented
Phrygians and Lydians great wealth accumulated
Greeks their first cities there created
And no one yet knows by who Gobekli Tepe was generated

 Gobekli Tepe is filled with sculptures of animals of all surds
Those were placed there with inscriptions in ancient words
Before people had iron or even bronze swords
Was it a temple a market or twelve thousand year ago an observatory to distant worlds?

Yet Gobekli Tepe waits patiently
For the inscribed key
That would change or perhaps fulfill its destiny 
From couple of ancient rocks to star like beauty

When out world majesty
Through and horizon energized by the key
By Gobekli Tepe will be granted nonlinearity
And I hope person with that key will be me
