Erato Poems - Poems about Erato

Ode to Erato “Hear, here!” What’s this poppycock all about? “Get rid of St. Valentine’s Day… you say, — I say naught!” Brave Britannia, are we losing our faculties? I’d give my life for God, King and country, but to give up St. Valentine’s Day, “Preposterous!” A night with Erato is an experience like no other. Painfully erotic, overwhelming and barbaric, or tenderly...

I used to dwell in a desolate space A grim and twisted world of cataclysm Wrought by the echoes of my own disgrace Back then, I was nothing but an empty shell Who lived life as if it was destined for the deep But that was before the cosmic spell It was the rarest moment when the stars aligned The eternal cosmos...

At the Feet of the Goddess by Michael R. Burch “What will you conceive in me?”— I asked her. But she only smiled. “Naked, I bore your child when the wolf wind howled, when the cold moon scowled . . . naked, and gladly.” “What will become of me?”— I asked her, as she absently stroked my hand. Centuries later, I understand: she whispered—“I Am.” Published by Romantics Quarterly...

Erato, muse of love poetry Inspires all of us to tell our tale, Of when that magic spark set us free, And the loneliness began to fail. Some poets write of love at first sight, Some of a smoldering love that grew. When both souls know the feeling is right A kiss on the lips with passion anew. The love of my life...

1. Uninvited you come, oh Erato*, you muse of poetry, the Majority of the times, Knocking at my soul’s door at any given moment Insisting on letting you in, your message to deliver Disregarding at what state my soul is and if she could With your request, comply 2. Oh, Muse of poetry, when with my soul’s inspiration You are flirting all...

Whenever a Melancholy Moon, Radiantly brimful, looms low, And gilds the tops of the trees, The hills, the flowing streams, and languorously reclining lakes, My Muse appears to me from nowhere like a dream, Like a flash of inspiration to a muddled mind. She glides towards me like an elusive wreath of smoke And gathers me in her delicate arms like a silken robe, Hovering around me like the...

Why silence, Erato, old friend, Is there a thought you wish to transcend You call me a poet, how can that be For my quill be a twig and parchment a tree I paint of morning, my hopes lie ahead My words unsure, I merely sense my tread Yet, Erato, you say rhyme will give fire Rendering visions with the brush of...

As I slumber Deep in desirable dreams She comes With lyre in hand Her song is purest poetry Gifted by Apollo And drawn by Zeus’ hand O’ sweet melody She serenades my soul Whispering verses Still longing to be made manifest Her fragrance compels me To dream her beauty And inspires greatness In corners of minds Only muses can occupy Daintily she places myrtle Around my bed And rouses me...
