Interlocking Antlers of Stags

Steep-roofed great oak doors sheen of sheilds Deep tombs stones shrines honoured dead distant past creaking of rafters carved red oak Stones in a mysterious rivers course............. the rush of life whirl past ancient ships Rams skull masks crescent moons.......... deep three beat rythum of skin drums.......... The raging seas hurled him high a wave crashed over him as he clung on to a piece of driftwood almost tearing him clean. Majestic mountains on the horizon ........... shimmering in a haze of heat ................... An abundance of rain and rich fertile soil The peeling of the bells swelled heavily The women's crowns , veils and pointed headdresses trailing fur trimmed mantles A young knight on a white horse the squire dropped from his perch on the ramparts. The steward came in with a covered platter then used a knife to shave thin slices of lime
