Ancient Egypt
Nile stretches like serpent from abyss
Because it nourishes the desert it reflects universal bliss
On its shores Cleopatra gave Mark Anthony a kiss
Where she turned a ruler from a princess
That is where the ancient Sphinx whispers riddles of old
Whoever answers them will have more than just gold
This is where God Amun Ra looks down on earth when day is about to unfold
This is where ancient pyramids only surviving ancient wonder are precisely it to behold
The pyramids are a tomb
But this is no place of just death this is a womb
This is no place of gloom
This is place where glory of Pharaohs soul will bloom
For his soul will not simply disperse
But be one with Amun Ra secret and sacred universe
Where with very God pharaoh can converse
And in the eternal light and perhaps ultimate good submerse
This is the culture distant and unique
Having great offering to those who knowledge seek
This culture rose when closeness of suns’ binary star was at its peak
Ancient but advanced pyramid was stepping stone to essence of soul force of which divine winds speak
