Where Giants Have Walked
There were days when giants could reach out and touch the heavens. Their steps shook the earth to its deepest depths. To them, trees were merely blades of grass, mountains merely hillocks, and oceans merely lakes. Walking beside them we would have been minuscule ants scrambling to get to the safety of our dirt hills.
