 Re: إعلان الفائزين فى جائزة غادة للكتاب المتميزين..8/12..ولادة الفرح من رحم الأحزان! (Re: طارق ميرغني)

Dust Country
Hot air bombards me
My face burns,as if I have just been slapped.
I raise my eyes to the fiery golden orb that sits
In the center
Struggle to breathe for a few seconds
The hot air wooshing into my lungs
Trudging across the large , uneven expanse of land,
I see nothing but desert ahead of me
My bear feet sink
Sink
Sink
Into the golden sand that shimmers and shifts with the
Wind in the noonday sun
Like the glimmering, shimmering,sapphire ocean
There is beauty here..
The pyramids loom above me, their insurmountable peaks
seeming to touch the sky
These once magnificent structures now crumbling, yet still
retaining that stately, age old
Beauty that people come from miles away to see
Do I dare to enter?
Inside,
t
The walls are engraved with symbols, concave
Shapes, carved into crumbling
Brown walls
These drawings, shrouded in myth and
Mystery, fascinate me
Pharaohs depicted in all their regal glory
This is the story of this once fertile land
People rest here , mummified
Their souls seeping into the shadowy after life,
One left to remember them
Everything seems to have lost a little of its color
Yet somehow,in this place where time stands still
Everything is sharply defined to the
Tiniest detail
When the time comes to leave this place
Where Ihave come to feel at home
I am reluctant to depart
The Imperial facades of the pyramids shrink as I move
Farther away, getting smaller
And smaller
And smaller
Diminishing in my sight as I know they will at some point
Diminish from my memory
There is beauty here.
A vibrant land ringed with hints of its mysterious past
Quiet as the tombs that hold its ancient rulers
It is ageless, timeless, exquisite
It is Meroe
....
....
....
Where ancient history and myth meet
Civilization and modern-day culture
Where people of all tribes, tongues, and nations converge
Where all are welcomed and cherished as one
This beautiful arid land
Is for ever imprinted in my mind
Now as much a part of me as my eyes, my hands, my
Heart
Are a part of me
I will never forget
