Alcyone
* *Rest on golden shores Taste of salt in pleasure's waves Seagulls soar and cry* *
Forgot to post this yesterday, I was more exhausted then I thought. Still following the trend of Pleiades, the Seven Sisters. This haiku is for Alcyone (or Halcyone). There isn't much about her (and I had to ensure I am writing about the right woman as there are many who share this name and of course, many myths of other Halcyones as well, haha!) With this lovely lady, she is know to be seduced by Poseidon and bore him many children so yes, this haiku is very much a euphemism! You know me, I just love playing around with the portrayal of myths! Anyway, thank you all for growing followers, I'm forever humbled and grateful for the support 🙏🌹💜 Here's the link for the growing collection: https://hellopoetry.com/collection/132853/the-women-of-myth/ Be back tomorrow with another one! Much love, Lyn 💜
