Cornucopia

Cornucopia

The season arrives and and I must prepare
my horn of plenty will be dusted soon
to garnish anew with all fruits and greens
and feed my Muses with such tender care
a  broken horn that Zeus had repaired

gather together the sweet and green food
to satisfy and reveal a new mood
to replenish my empty soul again
abundance anew resembling a coup
awaiting for now a new time to pend

when the season flows and then recedes
the horn is placed in a flowered bed
while all around it new buds will arrive
My cornucopia will be alive

What beautiful words, and a lovely flowing poem - I know Zeus is somehow connected with the horn, I should know but don't - will look it up straight away. Stay safe, Blessings, Jenny.
