Quanta laden light gust
thousands light years ahead ..
From the creative core of the infinite sole
Waves beyond waves of lavish lust .
Glorious brush in the delicate grip
religiously tracing a carved frame
and gently weaving a Cairene grace
of light, highlight, and a sepian shade.
At noon .. all noons, a faintly glow
Grows to a silky throw ,
and warm vibrant strokes
at sunset …wears spicy tangy hues .
Cairo, the city of light and shade
Painted, permeated, bathed
From birth to dark to dawn, a fairy tale
of the century old.. love affair…
