THE IDLE RHYTHM

The idle rhythm

Of Her song

Soothes the soul

And cools like balm

The molten heat

Of raw desire

THE NINE MUSES OF THE ARTS – THALIA (MUSE OF COMEDY)

 

The nine muses

Daughters of Zeus

Inspiring of mortals

And nurturers of the arts

The eighth was,

The divine Thalia,

Flourishing, in bloom,

Was the muse of comedy and idyllic poetry

A comic mask in her hand

The praises of Thalia, rustic goddess

And in her songs flourish through time

THE NINE MUSES OF THE ARTS – TERPSICHORE (MUSE OF DANCING)

 

The nine muses

Daughters of Zeus

Inspiring of mortals

And nurturers of the arts

The seventh was,

The divine Terpsichore,

Delight of dancing,

Muse of choral songs and dance

A lyre in her hand

Accompanies the dancers

Terpsichore muse of dance

Mother of the sirens
