Shadows from an older time
Blackened enfused in the sacred stone
Lost
Gone now
Forever Leaving
Forgotton,
Their haste left behind
A crux
A hovering nameless present
Sitting hastily waiting ..
Waiting for its owners
Patient footfall
The shadows refelct an old echo
The unknowns name
A flickering,
A twitch
Flows through the writings
Unlocking,
An opening gate
A soft whispering cry
Announces
The ancients returned smile
They have their needed nameless present
Now balance
Again

I love freeverse. I like to just let what I have inside, out.

Hi. it is interesting to see so many different things that people see in a pic, I liked this a lot, I can see this comp is not going to be easy to judge, a very nice write, all the best in the comp like the idea of the ancient one, hugs Di

Interesting...
This is the right category, definitely a fantasy atmosphere and a feel of history about it. Matches well with the image. Good luck in the contest!
