The Anthropomorphic Carving

by

J. M. Hallett

On the rock face above Gemstone Spring
There was an anthropomorphic carving
Not an ancient petroglyph, most believe
But quite old, nonetheless
Of a beautiful, full figured maiden
Nude, with angel's wings
A very soulful work of art - most serene
Sadly, though, an out-of-state church group
In search of minerals... like tourmaline
Took it upon themselves to destroy her
Citing, they believed the image obscene
