Persephone
by Vikki OwensDecend again, Persephone,
just a taste is all you need.
From your mouth flows the duality, your lips
utter breath of spring
and bring it back again
into the deep.
And here I've loved you, Persephone.
You, always climbing up and then returning to me...
You change your mind
quick as the wind blows.
You are neither here nor there, but with me always. 03/03/2005 Posted on 03/03/2005

| Posted by Michelle Angelini on 03/05/05 at 12:14 AM Vikki, I enjoyed reading your poem. Ancient mythology is one of my interests I had a some wonderful websites about ancient cultures and mythology, which at the moment I can't find. Good work!
