Question: Can you tell what it is about!?
They rode strong upon the wind
A wave of fire in their eyes
But towards the setting moon they gave
A fist to means of mire
A mirrored glance into the deep
And out from thence
The darker seek
To twist their hearts and wrench their will
But further in
They venture still
As ocean gods sought to restore
Their order to these mortal masts
The sailors found an ally odd
And faster still her power brought
Aboard the deck
She gave a wail
And sent wind upon the sail
Moving them far faster yet
And through the gates of hell
She sang her song and skies stood by
To watch in wonder at her cry
when all the men began to fail
She silenced her reply
So they pushed through the barrier
And broke again to calmer seas
But when it was through they barred her way
And sought themselves be pleased
She was torn by those she helped
And ran away into the sun
A goddess’ gift to mortal men
Was twisted into passions fun
Now she turns from mans embrace
Unto another with her heartWww@QuestionHome@Com

Sounds as if you have encountered a "Fury" - she got a little upset with these guys - poem went well until the last two lines - methinks should be more dramatic for a "woman scorned"!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It reminds me somewhat of the story of Jason and the Argonauts!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
