Notes About The Poem

Pleiades
Only one word is allowed for a title followed by a single 7-line stanza, each line
having 6 syllables. The first word in each line must start with the same letter as the title.

Hephaestus

Hephaestus

Hephaestus, god of fire,
had legendary skills.
Handicapped, and yet still
hailed as a smithing god,
his metalworking skills
helped him fashion weapons
hammered out for the gods.


(Pleiades)
