Land of the Pharoahs
Your children seek their future
Live with dreams and hope.

As you can see, I have been playing with Haiku again! I'm still not really into 'poetry' but I quite like this simplistic form because it can convey so much with so few words.

If you would like some more examples of Haiku there are a number of threads about it, with examples, hidden in Literary Corner. Here's one of them: viewtopic.php?f=27&t=6720&hilit=Haiku

Thank you Bennu - I'd lost track of this one. Egyptian Chronicles is a great little site with interesting views on urban development as well as politics.
I see the UK government has just placed Egypt in the red zone category concerning travel, more bad news, so I can only assume that Egypt didn't have the virus was false news then.

Have a great time Newcastle. Keep us posted and above all keep safe. Lets hope by the time you're ready to come back Egypt will be back on the amber list at least!
Thank you.
