I Am She

I AM SHE..
QUEEN OF THE NILE.
FOR 9000 MILES,
I STILL WALK THE EARTH.
GIVING BIRTH,
WITH MYSTERIES.
OF REMEMBERING ME..
270 DEGREES,
MY PYRAMID STANDS,
TALLER THAN TREES.
PLUSHED IN GOLD.
AN STORIES, TOLD.
BUT NEVER UNFOLD.
I TRAVEL THE EARTH,
IN THE AFTER BIRTH,
GIVNG YOU LIFE,
STILL CUTTING LIKE A KNIFE.
I AM SHE...
THROUGH SUN AN CLOUDS.
RAIN AN SMILES.
STILL WALKING THE EARTH.
I'M, QUEEN OF THE NILE.....
