A Walk With Ancient Wonders
Mythical Magic For My Muse
My Muse loves to share my walks around ancient ruins and we both love ancient mythology. This is a celebration of that.

Choose Your Own Adventure: St Helena Station
*****Preface***** I have been obsessed with Choose Your Own Adventure stories since I was a kid. I credit them with my love of reading and writing. I've been struggling to get my own kids to embrace words the same way I have but they love video games and our occasional Dungeon's and Dragon's game... which gave me an idea. I'll write an interactive story. So far its working; my middle son loves it and can't wait for the next section to come out.

You deserve a muse that enjoy walking and exploring the past with you. Beautiful and romantic poem for your muse.
Very nice! Ruins are fascinating. She's a lucky lady.
Now the Pyramids of Giza are where I want to go next! Your Muse is definitely a good friend to you.
Such a wonderful poem Mike. I loved it!
That's beautiful!!
A lesson learned while enjoying a beautiful poem. A very visual one
How picturesque this poem is describing such a time and relationship. Great work. What a way to introduce this era as well.
Charming poem, well done! :)
This is a beautiful piece. I love how you incorporated so much mythology and architecture from different parts of the world to create a mystical feeling. Excellent job.
Fascinating!
