NO, that is not ME with him. It's that dang Aphrodite without her nightie.

Love Letter to Adonis My dear Adonis, you who even charmed the goddess Aphrodite and the Queen Persephone, it’s I you’ve now disarmed! One look into your eyes, I did not mean to fall in love with you so hopelessly! I understand two thirds the year you are required to split between Persephone and Aprhodite. Oh, she is a star! But neither of those two could love you more than I! This mortal woman’s love is true! My beautiful Adonis, I implore you, give me just a little time with you! I want you so! Please, my beloved, bring your love to me when you’re reborn in spring! April 4, 2018 For Viv Wigley's Love Letter II Contest

The structure of a sonnet is well suited for the topic of love. Nice poem.

I'm typing from half way across the room where I am dividing photos and no I don't have ADD (that would be Tim) and No I'm Not comfortable! I loved your dramatic delivery so I had to talk and I'm too stubborn to get the photo albums out from under the chair wheels. This is impressive. (poem) I went a different way, would love for you to read it, I was hoping you'd stumble on it and get kick out of it. A kick would be more comfortable than my arms are now! Loved this and you ...

I was thinking how amazingly epic-like this poetry is, and how much I should read mythology, because I have forgotten so much after reading this beautifully-penned poem by a master poetress when I looked up, saw the photo and then looked further up, and saw your HEADLINE for the photo and now I cannot stop laughing. You are amazing, so is this gorgeous poem, and the photo. But the poet notes. Oh, my! Andrea, I so needed to see that headline. Oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my!

Greek mythology is a fascinating subject and I think you have done this really well, look forward to his response. Good luck. Tom.

Mythology is so fascinating and you bring it to life in your poem. Hopefully humanity will learn tolerance one of these days. I went to 3 seders this year.One public one - one at my sisters - and one in my building. Loads of good food! The Last Supper was a seder as I am sure you know. Peace &Love Matthew Anish
