Draft 4
The Ancient World
By Keaton
Mesopotamia, with two serpentine rushing rivers
And towering ziggurats
Egypt, with flourishing pharaohs
And paramount pyramids fashioned from stone
Israel, with God’s holy law
And the glorious temple of God
Babylon, with the ornate Ishtar Gate
And lush Hanging Gardens
Greece, with countless cunning gods
And astonishing athletes of the Olympics
Rome, with exalted emperors
And its amazing armies
The Ancient World,
Radiant Pyramids, Astonishing Olympians, and
Rome’s Abolishing Armies.
