From Another Dimension

Ancient graphics etched on the wall, With myrrh and frankincense drifting Along the sacred temple of the gods; Where fragrant smoke burns, a Pharaoh’s rite . Homage to higher spirits are encased, Prints of cobra, ankh, and kohl eyes Trace a lavish tomb with gems crowned On the pyramid of afterlife. And light-waves capture age-old stories Through imaging where eternity walks, With older gods , not from this earth But from a dimension beyond Egyptian stars, Infinitely mysterious, a vortex undefined.

The title drew me right in, Nette. My most favourite subject: Did super-intelligent extraterrestrial life visit our planet thousands of years ago and thus influence our great ancient nations when instructing them in the skills and building of their massive structures and architecture - Who knows? Compelling thought though...Is it not? My very best regards, Nette, as always of course...And my very warmest wishes. :) john
