In the distance

The word prompt from Frank at Dutch goes the Photo: Hill

There
they said.
We want it
there.
Atop
that hill
they said.
Many years ago
it was done
There
atop the hill.
Built with
splendor
to be
important.
Viewed from
afar
the splendor
dwarfed by
rocks
and clouds
stands
engrossed
in it’s
self importance.
There
they said
We want
it there
so all can see
our might
and power.
The clouds
laughed.
The rocks
sighed.
It is there.
Nature
encroaches
but none shall
not know
it is
there
atop that hill.

    1. I still wonder what it was, perhaps a monastery I think after seeing the dome. It did look a treat as I whizzed past on the train.
