Siren Poems - Poems about Siren

I had a dream last night. When I looked into the mirror, I was wearing a denim mid-skirt with boots, and a dramatic yellow top with feathers—things I would never wear, least of all on a steaming summer day. I looked around and found myself on the dock, where my grandparents live in Keelung, Taiwan....

She wore necklaces of coral, strings of pearls embracing her body, glinting back at the broken sunlight scattered across the sea floor. Her glassy eyes gazed up, somewhat worried, somewhat mournful, longing to leap above the waves, to sing that chorus of birds passing by. Longing for her voice to take flight, uninterrupted by ships sailing by. She wasn't born a killer; just...

as the sea serenades sorrowful symphonies of marine ruins I listen to the crashing crystals within sun-drenched sapphires married to the memories of once upon a castaway prose blissfully blocked replaying an unwritten ...

The world is your mirror, its stage such delight, You're drunk on the elixir of endless limelight. Ceaseless is the obsession for attention. Baseless without foundation, a hollow pretension. A dazzling array of endless phase shifts, Keeps any analysis at bay in the mists. Always in your face, so hard to dismiss. Always in the media, a relentless hit-or-miss. There's no let-up, no...

In the watery deep, where she calls home, She swims with her kind, but she is alone. They call to her, but she swims away, Returning to the surface, each night, and day. Searching for something, she does not understand, A beautiful creature, that walked on dry land. She had seen the boat, that fateful...

I watched as you lay there. Unbothered as the ocean reached for you, Kissed your skin, Held your hair, Soothed your thoughts. Your eyes were the color of sea glass, vibrant and ever-changing. If I left, would you sink? Would you shimmer away like the divine? Or would you float like the sea foam that surrounds the stars? Forever your figure drowns...

On my farm, my daughter Zoe grew strong She became a beauty, like a happy country song. She didn't smoke or drink, had lots of fresh air But an exorcist once took a look, told me to beware Down a dusty road in the evening glow, She'd walk in her gown where the wildflowers grow. Deceptive beauty...

She was always a singing siren of a woman. She was always attaining what she can. She was always a bright, seductive being. She was always so willfully enchanting. She had found the love of her life at eighteen. She had found herself in a passion so unpristine. She then eventually needed a means to leave. She had managed to find a...

Yo-ho, all together Hoist the colors high Heave ho, thieves and beggars Never shall we die- Sail the seas, calm or rugged See what lies underneath Creatures of old, the ship they drugged To the cold of the sea, beneath Among the men, there was a treasure Diamond in the rough- Chased by men, for their pleasure Till she had had, enough In the waves, conscious faded There...

Too many sailors who have lived to tell, Her siren song permeates, day by day it fell. Luring in ships to crash, break, splinter on cliffs, She masters ethereal crescendos, opera riffs. Each day leads boats astray, the reel of the sea witch, Nay terror, her voice pitch rich is much more bewitch....

Her scales, of blue and green Queen of the sea, Beauty of the deep, a magnificent sight to see, From the depths, an echo of a gentle song, Her voice her presence, that I forever long. The ruler, Goddess of the Sea she will always be, But trapped in mental cage, longing to be free, Your savior I will be,...

It is early morning, and it is quiet, too quiet. The rambunctious bird won't even utter a chirp. Once resoundingly loud, her voice like a siren, Now you're lucky to find her softly humming at all. Once seeking passion, the bird now searches for silence, In hopes, the trees and leaves will drown out her absence of sound. A false hummingbird,...
