An unchangeable wind
On a distinguished night,
Hailed to lowly kings and put up no fight,
With animosity and rage, the stars dimed there light
For this was a scene, in which they could not delight.
The bow of the ship has now lost it’s way,
For this lowly king, will repay,
His ingratitude to the nightly stars,
That hallowed his pathway, thus this far.
The sea had no choice but too obey,
The unlawful wind that choose its way,
The lowly king had changed his mind
And broke the omen of ancient times.
A beautiful Nymph, lit under the moon
Awoke from her sleep and hailed the lagoon
Trapped under the curse, her father bestowed
By betraying Poseidon, a new fate he chose.
She spoke to her father the lowly king
And rebuked his ill treatment; to nature he sinned.
In disguised turmoil he did not obey,
Now his darling daughter will always pay.
The evil curse of the nightly moon
Will always keep her, in this deep lagoon.
Her father’s new allie: Aeolus the great
Will lead him home safely, to face his new fate.
My poem was inspired by Homers 'Odyssey' and Virgil's 'Iliad'. I'm not sure, but you may have to appreciate mythical stories to like it on a different level x
