Description
"Walk the paths of the ancients and stroll with the spirits of our past. Listen to their wisdom, whispered on the wind."
- From my poem "Welcome The Light", copyright 2018 by Douglas Taylor
A watchtower along the town wall at Rothenburg ob der Tauber looms above the Bavarian forest in autumn. The wall and the watchtowers were built in the 13th century and are essentially the same as when they served a vital purpose of the town they surround. Today one can walk along the top of the wall, and if you listen carefully, perhaps you will be able to hear the whispers of the ancient ones.
As soon as I saw this scene I knew what the title of the photograph would be, with apologies to Bob Dylan, of course.
"All along the watchtower
Princes kept the view
While all the women came and went
Barefoot servants too
Outside, in the distance
A wildcat did growl
Two riders were approaching
The wind began to howl"
