Isis

Isis trawls the Nile,
Finds thirteen dismembered parts,
The phallus missing,
Sings, resurrects Osiris,
Fashions gold phallus, conceives.

Running barefoot through the Nile
Not a care in the world not a fear
Heart is a pearl of love and cheer

Hanging by feet on a lemon tree.
Pondering the Egyptian Nile.
She has outgrown our small town you see.

My Wife is a jewel of the nile
Who yells only once in a while
I give her a smile 
And plead my denial
She keeps all her complaints on file.

Moon on the blue Nile.
Dual happenstance.
No pretense or guile.
Captured by romance.
Upon a timeless Isle.
Within a lover's trance.

Young Connor he voyaged The Nile
By sailing a live crocodile
The beastie went SNAP!
And swallowed the chap!
Oh well, it was fun for a while.

Love and Our World

Like Egypt without Nile,
like Holland without dyke,
like army without ammo,
like birds without wings,
is our world bereft of
brotherly love.

Into Pharaoh's Heart

in the shallow waters of the River Nile blooms the sweet gift of the Moses child who navigates with staff and rod into Pharaoh's heart

The Odd Smile

He always wore a dumb smile
Which made his mouth look like the nile
It was wide and long
Like in a different time zone
And its been that way for awhile

Red Sun

Cleopatera was warned

Of the heated blood glowing

Reflections from River Nile

Tick tick tick
Come QUICK

What is there to see
A piece of art passing
By on the Ancient Egyptian Nile

Tick tick tick
Proof that time began
With just a simple angelic
Smile

Distance Did Try To Compile

Distance Did Try To Compile

Existing separation did try to compile;
Current distance between each aisle;
See across,
Who is boss;
Knew would be longer than the Nile.

Crocodile

There was an old man from Carlisle
    Who went for a swim in the Nile.
    He soon gasped with despair
    When he came up for air.
    He's now just a crocodile's smile.

Premium Member See Nile

I’m no doc, but it seems to me
If you’re having trouble with pee
Between hard to piss
And finding you miss
It’s best to be able to see

    Egypt’s Pharoah claimed ‘The Nile is mine’ 
       With a wave of his hand - its waters, wine

    Scores of leaders today in outright denial
       Back then only Pharaoh, King of ‘Da Nile’

Premium Member Vexing Amphibian

Oh, the vexing amphibian - 
from the Nile or Caribbean.
Is it a toad or a frog,
a tadpole or polliwog,
a newt or salamander,
crocodile, alligander?
Oh, the vexing amphibian - 
from the Nile or Caribbean.

Songstress, big hair, and a huge smile
Cheshire cat teeth you can see across the Nile

You’re So Vain—Just might be about Jagger
Love her—Itsy-Bitsy Spider—and all her swagger

Premium Member Ancient Egypt's Glory

The Nile was serene
    its riverbank green
  Cleopatra the Queen
    supervised poverty obscene

  Ancient Egypt's glory?
    'twas short, brutish and mean
  for builders of pyramids
    worn out at eighteen

I Give My Love To Thee

Your blackness
Boldness
Breathless
Timeless
Effortless
Togetherness
Loveliness
Oneness
Pure black
African queen
When the
Morning comes
As far as
The eyes
Can see
Black queen of the Nile
I give my love to thee

Premium Member Goddess of the Nile

The Nile drifts restlessly in fresh woodland
Babbling over rocks and marbled edges…
Like a goddess in search of her old legends.
