WrenWind Posted May 19, 2003 Report Share Posted May 19, 2003 This was inspired by Psimon's "Temptress" Poseidon's Promise ------------ The Sirens sit and sing The perfect silhouette men see Sweet voices to lure them in He hears it float across the rocks His fate lies in his strength The pull to follow, great Sad songs for sad ladies Promised beauty, light and love Poseidon had a purpose Lure the wandering sailor Bring him to the murky depths Revenge against the race of man On the rock the sirens sing The promise still not kept. Two of three they have Beauty of face and form for sure A voice for songs so lovely But love. will never be For those who follow. die The Siren's song the last they hear And those who resist, move on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blondemoon Posted May 20, 2003 Report Share Posted May 20, 2003 Ah, mythology! Gotta love it! Seriously, I loved this Wren. I enjoyed the imagery, and now have the urge to go read some Greek mythology. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
