About Sometimes I spend lot of hours thinking
How many pharaohs passed over?
How many festivals held on its sides?
Sometimes talking to him
Tell me our greatest Nile
About your secrets.
About the greatest events you witnessed
About the poems spelt on your sides
About lovers communes beside your roses
About the passengers through your arteries
About worshippers tears felt inside your heart
About the history you kept deep inside your core
About my self ?.. My future ? My destiny
Irrigate my soul by your wisdom

Sometimes he whispers to me
Calm down yourself my son
The wisdom I got through thousands of years
Couldn?t spell in few days
Lots of humans passed over my surface
Had seen more than you can imagine
Kept all the secrets inside?? But
Telling you the truth.
Through the years and centuries
Never seen that deep perceive of sadness before
You touched my heart son?..
Through the years spoke to nobody but few
Your suffering deserved my respect... Will tell you
Your destiny has been written long before
Your birth ?.your death
Your happiness and sadness ?. But
God will give you some signs on your way
Those signs are the keys
To switch your Destiny from way to another
I know how deep your pain?is
Just search for your signs ?.
Don?t think about how many signs you missed
Even you missed the greatest one... Don?t give up
There is always a hope somewhere, sometime
Tell you a secret ? one small sign
Could give you a U turn or give you back
The happiness you had been lost ?. And more
I know that as much as my flood extends
As much as your tears will fall? but
Always be your self & you will be.
Advance... There is a sign waiting& next time
Let my waves celebrating your victory
Bye my son

thanks a lot dear jacques for your nice comment.


Andre Denis   {K:55532} 11/20/2005
A beautiful, moody image, Shady!
And a perfectly suited prose to go with it. Sometimes, when I take landscapes here in Canada, I also wonder how it must have been in the past. The amazing answer for me in most cases, whether the image was taken last week or 10,000 years ago, it might look exactly the same.
Andre


Shady Adly   {K:7814} 11/20/2005
Alison ... my dearest how are you? Miss you so much, I?m so busy these days can?t follow up all my friends work, hope that I?ll have sometimes free to do that on the week end...

Beautiful composition you have created here, Shady, truly a work of poetic art! Fit to hang on a wall, (wish it was on my wall!) You have given this lovely image the perfect title also, this young man looks deep in meditation. The birds are the perfect touch.

So many nice elements make up this photograph, and they all work together in this BEAUTY!!

Love it Shady,
Very NICE work, thoughts and words,
Lori :)
