~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ behold pyramids timeless, grand sentinels, silent and wise curators of ancient souls ancient mysteries locked inside in solitude they stand in desert, mystic land piercing crimson, golden sky great pyramids, looted tombs protected by guardian Sphinx geometries align with stars listen closely, pyramids speak secret riddles, history unfolds built of Nubian limestone pyramids survived, pharaohs gone their spirits silently speak whispers of grandeur remain

The pyramids left us with many riddles, but I can't help wondering how long after the pyramid is closed, do the servants realize they made a mistake. Your poem tells the more interesting side of it. I enjoyed reading it.
