    Great haiku. I read recently that this statue is probably a fake created in the late nineteenth century. I hope not because I've always admired it.

    Fascinating people, the ancient Egyptians. If that's really what she looked like, she was fit to be a queen!

I love comments and will attempt to reply to each one. However, lately I have been getting "Unknown" comments that are linked to some sort of web page. I will never open this sort of comment and will immediately mark as spam. I am not interested in opening something that could be detrimental to my blog security etc. Never have enjoyed hackers! Thanks!
