Unlock the Mystery

~A journey to remote temple ruins in the vicinity of Machu Piccu, Peru, inspired this song~
Deep in the night, under the roundest moon
Quietly I crept, to Her calling I attuned
Steps carefully! As I tread the rocky trail
To the ancient Goddess temple, where my hopes and dreams availed
She whispered my name from every narrow doorway
Around each corner,I was sure I’d find Her there…
The breeze carried Her scent in the sweetness of the air
What is the wonder?
Unlock the mystery
And time runs out
Unlock the mystery
That’s what this place is all about
Look into the mirror to the light so rarely seen
Listen to the wisdom in the echo of a silent scream
So long ago, the kingdoms finest maidens
Brought to this mountain top To the Goddess, serenading
Behold! The wisdom of the goddess
To bring new life; to bless one and all
Distant mountain peaks Circle ‘round Her like Her children
All feel drawn to this place by Her magnetic grace
What is the wonder?
Unlock the mystery
And time runs out
Unlock the mystery
That’s what this place is all about
Look into the mirror to the light so rarely seen
Listen to the wisdom in the echo of a silent scream
