Niagara-W

Niagara, the Antiope* of Canada, Amazonian*, but not breast less, Snowy bosom like virginal gems, Swelling lips moderately full, Savoury odor felt all around, Crystalline throat striking the eyes. Meandering, churning, darting, dashing, Transformed from blonde to brunette. Here alluring, benign, attenuated, There corpulent, colossal, capering, Practicing calisthenics all the time. Raquel Welch* in ‘One Million Years B.C.’* Wily Cleopatra, the Scythian of Ordzhonikidze*, Carnal Marilyn, matured Helen of Troy, Venus in Aries*, Mars in Pisces*. Broad bellied, middle-aged, deep, Now bulging belle of Detroit*, Encircling the wooing Windsor*, Yet the Blithe spirit of *Pelee Island. =========================== *Antiope is a figure from Greek mythology. She was the only Amazon known to have married. Daughter of Ares and sister to Melanippe and Hippolyte. *The Amazons (Greek: ?µa???e?, Amazónes, singular ?µa???, Amazon) are a nation of all-female warriors in Classical and Greek mythology. ...

I like the way you wove mythology into your poem about Antiope. Didn't know the Amazon women were thought to have one or no breasts at all. Very interesting and educational poem. Wishing you success in Chris's contest. Love, Carolyn
