Dedication
These
original poems were inspired by my deep love and fascination for the rich
history, culture, and spirituality of Ancient Egypt. If you love this ancient
civilization as much as I do, these poems are dedicated to you.

The
Ancient Egyptians loved life and celebrated it with joy. Their deepest desire
was to live an honorable life and achieve immortality in the afterlife, where
they could exist in perfect harmony with the cosmic order and never experience
pain, suffering, and hardship again. These original poems by Dawn Pisturino reflect
the hopes and dreams of people who were not much different from us. They
worked, loved, raised families, worshipped their gods, honored the dead,
enjoyed festivals and celebrations, imbibed beer and wine, danced, sang, and
played, aspired to better themselves, and appreciated the beauty and wonder of
nature. Take a journey back in time to explore the minds and hearts of the
Ancient Egyptians.
