Nausikaa

They all have on a necklace.
Their faces are so precious.
The clothes are draped across rocks,
And by the water sits one or two pots.
Green, gold, and white,
All these colors,
Makes their faces look so bright.
Bushes behind them,
And water there in front of them.
With flowers in hand,
Across her head,
There made,
Is a little band.

In this work, are you referring to the female character who helped Odysseus in Homer's "The Odyssey"? Her name is also often spelled with a "c" in lieu of a "k". Good write.

The title grabbed me, as I have never heard of the term before. This is quite interesting and sounds quite beautiful. Nicely done!
