Hydra, The Poet And The Siren On an Aegean island Hydra the nine headed serpent Of ancient mythology Upon a poet has landed Succumbed to beauty A northern siren Opens her arms Others played songs of love Myths and visions Swirling mind Eyes of moons Wine and song Words of the Greek sun Fall to Hydra Donkeys stagger cobble stones White sunned walls and sienna roofs The sea and her body From the poets’ pen Her beauty Kindness Generosity Reflecting blue eyes On lyrics Have landed Pages and song Laugh and cry And over again The poet took flight On the wing of Prometheus Into earths’ chaos Penetrates the crack Where the light gets in Of northern lights The siren remains Protected by Hydra She laughs and cries And over again They danced to the end of love With grace they loved They loved And they loved again After long lives They remained with love
