The poem An Altar By the Sea, was written during a time when, after 15 years, I revisited the place of my youth by the sea and encountered a stack of deep memories I had forgotten to remember. I walked along the same roads that I had as a young girl, trod again the paths that led me to where I am today, and reminisced with unforgettable intensity the uniqueness of growing up and living along side the vast realm of the ocean. The highlights of my visits to Egypt are captured in several pieces, as I recall the strangeness of being in a place where antiquity and a modern world collide, totally oblivious to those caught up in the explosion.
