…and its guardian – the towering Sphinx of Giza

 

Hay besos que pronuncian por sí solos la sentencia de amor condenatoria,  hay besos que se dan con la mirada, hay besos que se dan con la memoria. Hay besos silenciosos, besos nobles, hay besos enigmáticos, sinceros… hay besos que se dan sólo las almas, hay besos prohibidos, verdaderos. Hay besos que calcinan y que hieren, hay besos que arrebatan los sentidos,  hay besos misteriosos que han dejado mil sueños errantes y perdidos. Hay besos problemáticos que encierran una clave que nadie ha descifrado,  hay besos que engendran la tragedia… cuantas rosas en broche han deshojado. Hay besos perfumados, besos tibios que palpitan en íntimos anhelos, hay besos que en los labios dejan huellas como un campo de sol entre dos hielos. Hay besos que parecen azucenas por sublimes, ingenuos y por puros,  hay besos traicioneros y cobardes, hay besos maldecidos y perjuros. […] Hay besos… y besos… ———————————————– #Egipto #Egypt #Esfinge #Esfingedeguiza #sphinxofgiza #besos #besosymasbesos #ganas #travel #viajestop #Travelphotographer #bestplacetogo

Explore the Egyptian Museum’s plethora of ancient artifacts

 

The #egyptianmuseum is truly a wondrous place. It’s quite crowded but enjoyable. It is hard to see everything in an hour, this is just one single room. #moretimeplease
