Aphrodite

A bit of an ode to the beautiful greek goddess of love and desire.

Born with golden locks

That shine in the midst of sunlight

Rising out of raging seas

To bestow a sense of peace and serenity.

 

A lead into temptation

With a blunt force of eternal love

Shooting from the airy skies

Like from cupid's bow and arrow.

 

Constricted in a loving embrace

Neverending battles rage

Within humanity's lust for war

Bathed in streams of bliss.

 

A stunning vixen,

Of beauty and desire in human form

Whispering winds of lustful words

Flowing right into your heart.

The Greek Goddess of Beauty and my favorite, Aphrodite. Among all of them, she really stands out. You have written such a beautiful poem about her. Really wonderful indeed!
