Petrolyphs











Man and mountain and river are one.
Through pride in the land and pride in the earth
The people now celebrate a rebirth.
To give is to love, to love is to give;
To sing is to breathe, to dance is to live.
The feet caress the earth below,
Drawing the strength, releasing the flow.
The hands reach up to the sky above,
Catching the beauty, expressing the love.
Freshness and innocence, tenderness, grace -
In this Garden of Eden my soul's found its place.
Earth, fire, water and air:
The fire's in my heart, the water's a tear

To give is to love, how beautiful are these words...
dance my friend.. always dance
draw pictures of hearts
on everyone's forehead
and when they ask
don't explain
just dance

Hi there. I was just admiring your pictures and was wondering where these photos were taken, and whats written on these rocks, as the writing is not very clear.
Thanks!
