Ruins or the 7 Wonders

Close enough that Gubdude gets it!

7 Wonders of the Ancient World

Some were razed by shaking earth, others felled from fire.

The 6 that are gone were destroyed by earthquake or fires.

What yet remains some eyes have seen, and others still desire.

The Pyramid of Giza is still there - I haven't seen it yet in person, but I want to!

From salted rim drink your fill; remember when you're dry

Repositories of their mighty tales stand silently and nigh.
