Great Egyptology reference and imagery in this contemplative work my friend. Is man turning earth into a vast necropolis through his senseless pillage and plunder? “Peace is a pyramid”- in that it will point to Heaven? I believe so. I hope the gates are restored and welcoming when the prophesied time comes. Thought-provoking write R&R.

Thank you so much. I appreciate your insight and feedback. Glad you liked it.
I feel this world is badly tarnished & heaven seems more desirable than ever (to me, as an old person closer to dying than living). But in your poem, you take this to a level I never dreamed of -- even heaven is tarnished by all the questionable stuff going on down here. One thing I love about your approach when addressing the ills of society . . . you never sound like hellfire & brimstone, you always use a tone of understanding in your msgs, even of when writing about junk it's hard to fathom (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

Thank you again. I love seeing what you take from my work.
There are layers and layers within the message of these words of yours. I wonder how deed your soul goes looking for the sense of earthly life. Again I'm fascinated by the enigma hided in the flow of this beautiful writing.
The afterlife. The Egyptians certainly invested all their time and efforts into planning it. Fascinating subject. As to the pearly Gates of Heaven, I do believe they have rather lost their shine at the moment, as many of us have lost our ability to believe as we once did. Hoping that situation reverses one day and the light will be restored and the gates of Heaven regain their former glory. Thought provoking little poem Dale. All good wishes to you.

Thank you Christine for sharing you deep insight on my work.
this is wonderful... it's one of my favorite places and on my bucket list. I am absolutely fascinated with Egypt and its history and their skills were absolutely amazing. If I could go back in time to observe it when it was at its glory and I would do it in a heartbeat. But that aside I think it was well done and you could have gone on and on and would have been all that much happier as you sought peace and light in this piece.
