Daughter of harvest
Warm spring hands beckons death's breath
Arils strokes her lips


Another day, another woman of myth poem!
This haiku is dedicated to Persephone, one of my all-time favourite greek goddesses.
I grew up with the variant of her being abducted...
I always did feel for her.
I'm really enjoying this series, my list grows by the day!
Be back soon with more!

Vengence on her brow
On her palm, crisp gold chaos
For the beautiful


Another woman of myth!
This haiku is dedicated to Eris, another favourite Greek goddess of mine.
How one action caused such great war...

She whose born to strength
Wet with love for Achilles
Her life paid for wind


Another woman of myth, Iphigenia.
Such a tragic figure of Greek myth, I grew up with the version of her being sacrificed by her father to appease Artemis, though I know there are other variants to the story.
So sad...
But I really am enjoying this series, I hope you all are too!
There's alot more to come!
Be back soon with more!
Much love,
Lyn 💜

Pushed onto the craftsman lamed
Her eyes thirst for war

Bird flies over hills
Wait for me around my mind
Grass grows without fear
Forgot to post this yesterday where I walked up a hill and took in the sights of man and nature both...
Worth it haha!
Much love,
