Sun Goddess

The wind teased her veil

Lifting a cloudy corner

To peek at the sun.

    I don’t know why, but this makes me want to tell them the story of Icarus. The sun is beautiful, but get to close and you’ll get burnt

      Well said! I also love a fable about the bunny who shot a hole in the sun.

        I haven’t heard that fable before

          It is an old fable about the sunrise and why you cannot look full-on at the sun. If you are interested, you can check it out at

    The image reminds me of Egyptian mythology. It makes for a powerful combo with your poem

    Oooh! I like this! This is great in so many ways because you feel the sun shining at you when the clouds happen to move away, which can be associated with the wind. You have amazing poetic skills, hehe!

      I was thinking of wind moving clouds when I wrote this. Love that you saw that picture!

        Love reading your poems, you have such a way with words. Like the wind “teasing” I’ve started storing some of the phrases in my brain, to try and use in my own writing.

        1. Jaya Avendel

          That is a wonderful thing to do! I jot down odd phrases as they come to me, and most of them wriggle their way into some piece of writing.

      Admittedly, my timing is a little off season-wise!
