Only in Egypt .................

***********************

MMmm

that Van Morrison said it right

didn't he?

Days like this

*****************

Life in Egypt is full of days

that you couldn't live anywhere else

*****************

It is a kaliedescopic tumble through time

a flurry

of vibrant heart stopping

moments

love and tears filled

seconds

joy

& fury

close lovers here :)

*********************

We are in a stable

on a bed of rice hay

a young foal

lies

cradled

in a jacket

his beautiful

head

in the hands

of a massive man

****************

We are eight men and

two women

the foal

a

day old

************

as the sun

slips

away

********

night chills the air

the farm falls

silent

***********

Eight men

& two women

do all each can

then

rest

on hay

and wait

***********

Eight men feel

the foal slipping

they feel

the women

and

the foal

*********

The eight men

sing

slowly

together

the women

weep

for

the beauty

of the moment

touched to the core

by the eight men singing

and

the spirit

of the foal

silent tears

stream

****

the stable fills,

light

and

love pours out

Eight men and two women

and

a

foal

*******************

Only in Egypt

********************

Egypt

a privilege

Grateful thanks for the lives of the Animals

& the kind and generous loving spirit of friendships :)
