Song of the Sirens

Song of the Sirens Sara L Russell 29th Sept 2011 00:01am Come cease thy journey, come to us Odysseus, Odysseus, Come silently away; We'll kiss thee all and everywhere, beneath the ocean's spray. Oh we are warm and finely made We yearn for thee, be not afraid Come close to us this night, We'll make thee tremble with desire, like beating wings in flight I dreamed I lightly kissed thy hair Odysseus, tis true I swear, Then kisses to thy chest; Which swiftly ventured lower, at thy shivering behest. Discard thy garments, yield to us Odysseus, Odysseus, Come to our warm caress; We'll make thee sing the notes coherent words cannot express.

I like this poem having read the Odessey some years ago. The excellent Odysseus had a tough time resisting those babes! Peace & Love Matthew Anish
