Castlerigg Stone Circle
This circle of Lakeland stone megaliths that fell to earth some say
In an open meadow encircled by towering hills
Mute stones bear testimony to the beliefs of its long forgotten builders
Stand and stare in awe
Dance barefoot feeling the ancient vibes
Grass between the toes or brown mud, sometimes snow
Connecting with land, earth and the grey stones
Join hands with strangers to slowly circle and dance to the music of the winds
Renewing mind and spirit fuelled by this special place
Observed by the Cumbrian fells
