Bedrock Sphinx

Sphinx
Sits on
Burning sands
Sunning herself
In the noonday sun
She needs no chaise
She is a
Bedrock
Sphinx.

Often our creations more enduring than ourselves. Excellent write!

Oh wow, I'm so glad you enjoyed it and can see it in another dimension now. I love a good mystery and the Sphinx is definitely a mystery; maybe forever...who knows...Thanks so much.

Brilliant. What a metaphor. I visited Gizeh in a sand storm. Fled into one of the pyramids. During the inside (insight?) descent, the lights went out for a minute...

Whoa! What was it like in there without lights? Thanks.
