Lyre of Olympus (11 or 13 strings) - ancient Greek lyre

Listen to poem:

*Image of Lyre by LUT. 8 Lines Now Okay Irked shadow's occasions a Sun, Tolls a knell's lowly peal, begun. Ill winds bade the palls hovering, Time betrays caused uncovering. Inch thoust trek thy countenance hid, The belching rains down thoust forbid. In looms thoust melt of Luna's lyre, Thoust lieth in her soothing fire. 2022 August 15

Hoping that you would, Andrea! "i" felt more productive being the inquisitive phase, and "t" would produce more thinking phases my friend, Aloha~William
