Was Atlantis but a dream, or did it really exist?
As Plato wrote upon his scrolls "No better place then this"
Between the "Pillars Of Hercules"in the blue Mediteranean Sea
Established by "Poseidon" for the likes of you and me
On an Island full of beauty and circular in shape
Adorned with walls and great canals and houses dressed in slate
Then at its heart upon a hill a temple then was placed
A tribute to "Poeidon" and to all those he embraced
Inside there was a statue, they say of solid Gold
A Chariot with six winged horses as big as they were bold
All this was then divided into sections up to ten
Five sets of twins then ruled all this not ordinary men
Civilisation grew and grew then spread across the Earth
All of this nine thousand years before even Plato's birth
But corruption and the greedy then reared its ugly head
The Gods decided to destroy them, sent them to the Ocean bed
No vestige of them there was left, no survivors left to tell
So is this nothing more then Myth
Or the Minoan Empire that "Plato" knew so well?
