the lionman sits in stone-carved wait
for all the children at his gate
the days are short the time draws near
and peace comes not to those who fear
for it is said that in the end
what it was will just begin
those who were will be again
you could be you or maybe kin
the seers know for what to see
as what they see will come to be
there is no secret to believe
no gods seek thee to deceive
the key to all is given all
to save themselves from the fall
to live now to live again
is simple really it’s all within
the ancient kings hold not the key
‘tis your own soul will set you free
‘tis you and you alone you see
who will decide to be or not to be
the lionman sits in sun and sand
your lives not his to command
he sits
he waits...

So nice to have you back Gypsy. "the ancient kings hold not the key
‘tis your own soul will set you free" and I have been hunting around for some ancient wisdom lately. Sometimes I just don't want all of the responsibility of making my own decisions.
Thought-provoking and comforting at the same time. Thank you. Nice to have you back posting!!!
You're back and this is beautiful! Hurray!
The Gypsy is back and stirring the fire, telling tales of life, death, love and desire....
Welcome (home). Love the post and the mystical image.
Oh this was beautiful! It was not the same without you here..to hear your words and feel the energy

So happy to see you back, Gypsy! Hope you had a wonderful time. I'm still away - just popped in to say hi.
hello dear butternut! oh, well, i so know what you mean about the responsibility of my own decisions - something which plagues more than a few of us, i'm sure! but also something that can bring such a degree of self-satisfaction at the same time - or - ??? ;)
