Egyptian Star Poem by Mark Heathcote

You are an Egyptian star
O sees how bright you are

I would build a pyramid
to stare closer uninhibited-

At you, because I love you
I think that's what I will do.

To take an uninterrupted view
altogether better look at you.

With genuine gratitude, I thank
the universe, you're in a basque.

The one I bought for you to wear
it's time to give up solitaire.

And here make our bedchamber
sands of time are our narrator.
