Question: The story behind Siren's Dying Witch!. Will you discover!?
SONG ENSNARING SIREN part I

She was born
as one with Earth,
no love entered
in her birth!.

Shunned,
stunned,
story begun
alone!.
Heart in
danger
of meeting
stone!.

The world
had no place for her,
every day,
her life unsure,
she raised defiant blue eyes,
refused to let them cry!.

But Earth
gave her shelter,
and loved her,
devoted!.

She stumbled upon
the five pointed star,
from home, from life,
from hope flung far!.
A white robed daughter
of the moon
saw soul's own slaughter,

reached with athame
gleaming bright,
peered with mantic
second sight!.!.!.

and named the orphan Eva!.Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
The poem began to come alive to me as you moved into the stanzas with the longer lines - and strangely the last two worked for me, altho' I have no idea who athame is or what mantic means (I particularly like - from five pointed star, from home, from life, from hope flung far - the alliteration trips off the tongue!.

But Earth
gave her shelter
and loved her
devotedly
(devoted doesn't sound right to me) and the rhythm isn't lost by using devotedly!.
Well done!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The priestress born from wiccan ritual!? Beautiful flow and alliteration!. Please leave you athame home when you come to visit!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I am flattered to see that others have taken so strongly to the story of Siren!.!.!. Though, seeing who you are and who I am, makes the feeling so much better!. It is wonderful to know that you have taken this and made it your own!.!.!. as always, it was for you so you have all right to do so!.!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The witches found
the wandering soul,
and called her Eva,
made her whole,

now shall she live
in relative peace,
or will earth shake
and never cease!?

Give more, Evadne, than this enigmatic glimpse!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

While you do have talent in the area of writing poetry, your subject matter is damaging to your soul!. Dabbling in the craft, or even entertaining thoughts of dabbling, allows spirits to enter that will take you over and harm you!. You seem to have a beautiful way with words and I would hate to see a girl with your talent go the way of the fallen!. Stay true to the cross!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It's not only brilliant, I learned two new words!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
