Notes

New day, new haiku! (Repost as HP was acting up for some reason)

This one is for Peitho, Goddess/Spirit of Persuasion and Seduction.

It's no accident that she is also handmaiden/servant to the one and only, Aphrodite.

I wanted to play around with these facts in mind.

Tbh, I'm still so and so about this haiku. As I said I try to be very careful with the words I choose for each Woman of Myth.

Anyway, thank you all for 373 followers! I'm humbled and grateful for the support 🙏🌹💜

Here's the link for the growing collection:

Be back tomorrow with another one!

Much love,

Lyn 💜
