Description
(Ranked # 18 out of the top 1000 in Wattpad poetry on August 20, 2015! See photo in "Thank You Readers".) A name, a history, and four lines of mystery . . . Is one short poem enough to experience a life, a legend, or a legacy? The poetry in this book is inspired by fantasy, historical accounts, and fairytales. I wanted to keep the elegant parts of traditional wisdom that encourage or allow for quiet thought.- L. Etheriel (This book has new parts added throughout the week! If you want to keep updated, then please add it to your reading list and follow the author. Feel free to leave comments and vote/leave a star on every poem you enjoy!) Here are a few samples , just two from over 60 original poems in this growing collection. Sample Poem #1: Lorelei (Lorelei is derived from a legend similar to that of a siren or mermaid. The myth tells of a maiden who lived on a rock in the Rhine River. Her song lured fishermen.) Deep in the mist an aria is hidden The Rhine's lilting voice serenades the forbidden Dripping locks of hair and a blanket of scales Vanish as lilies and foam cover her trail Sample Poem #2: Jason (Jason originates with a word meaning "healer".) Neither wounds nor aching bones should go unnoticed Still, healing of another kind must come into focus There are remedies of herbs or a doctor's inspections But spare a moment of ease to make calm reflections
