Lost Beasts of the Bahariya Oasis

Egypt 95 million years ago

Long before the pyramids were built 

Laid a marshy land of water and silt

Marching through the muck so slow

A herd of Paralititans with their necks hang low

They keep moving to hide away their guilt

Of leaving their own behind with knowledge of blood spilt

By carnivorous Carcharodontosaurs who satisfy their hunger without care and woe

Nearby the legendary Spinosaurus plops into the water like duck

The cool water feeling refreshing to this aquatic beast

With the hopes that with some luck

It can have a fishy breakfast feast

Meanwhile in the skies the pterosaurs Alanqa squawk and cluck

As they make their migration back home east
