dark
to light
the passage
of long lost time
resurfaced in my
Coptic mind wrapped by the
ancient ones who now travel
through the layers of abandon
our Queens have risen to guide again
sun rays of Ra sail through the gates of gold
silenced we wade the paths of the faithful
three portals inviting to our souls
even in death there is danger
of us making the wrong choice
before we exit to
our homeland beyond
the binding ties
of judgment
swift feet
board

Love the feel of this one. Egyptian mythology is close to my heart.

The myths have been part of my life since I was a very small girl and my grandfather let me look at his picture books. I suppose my own book, retelling them…The Osiriad… was always ineviatble ๐
