Siren Song

Listen to the chimes
beneath the waves
break the calm
violet dusk
that slows the hours.

From all the origins of music
nothing is as pleasant
as the ethereal sound of your song
daughter of Neptune,
voice of moon driven rain.

It will outlive my time
as it has all others.
Eternity. Desire. Nimbus.
Be present in my ear
on the last day.
