Twilight dreams lead me to a mystic place
Where Sirens alight on wings of gemmed threads
As fair Teles allures till harps ignite
On waters foiled above lush ocean-beds
Sunken caves line the tides where men yield
To fluid hums trilling like drops so gold
I pivot around feathered limbs varnished
With aquatic splash of murmurs untold
Gliding on trails adorned with rare corals
Attractive nymphs bathe on the shore to play
While laughter ripples grinding their curved hips
Before darkness finds a male to betray
I gaze and absorb this exotic scene
Recalling my claim, sea maiden of night
A fancy that beguiles my hours’ wonder
Never to appear again in hindsight.
Siren-- A sea nymph with the upper body of a woman
and winged, bird-like lower body.
*Teles—Greek Siren of Perfection

the world without martin Luther king
my life without my mom's wedding ring
radio without songs
doorbell without dingdongs
teles without phones
bodies without bones
poems without rhymes
clocks with times
rulers without measures
maps without treasures
shoes without feet
songs without a beat
snakes without scales
dogs without tails
t.v. without shows
feet without toes
babies without whines
gold without mines
a watch without numbers
a club without members
