The Beauty of Nefretiri

That the Angel of death may pass you by ~ Her Beauty, the lovely queen of Egypt gazing at Rameses As he bowed afore his god, this statue with the head of a bird.... Lord of the underworld; with no life, no sight nor hope to offer!? None that could deliver him or his kingdom from, The Glorious Word ~ Nefretiri, cursed to have lost the love of her life while peering at this Her man, clutching tightly unto the golden calf left gasping for Life and breath, within this the kings hardened hands?! Cow dung trails as he rang the bell to summon his chariots To battles cry, with her queenship well upon the way unto another Intoxicating day upon the throne; thinking to herself.... About that worthless bird while Rameses admired his silver sword Closing her eyes, as the honey wine set in and her chambermaids So fair, brushed her hair as she softly sighed to forget!? The image of that marble made god and her king the heir Now adjusting and pulling his silk war attire from, times crack.... Afore smiling at the soon to be widowed ladies and handing her His golden calf; that the Angel of death may pass you by?! ******************************************************* ....“The Beauty of Nefretiri” ~
