The siren and her song can express for love for a man, even a desire to save him. Wisdom consists of listening to others and coming to understand them. The siren song can contain wisdom.

I'm guessing this Siren is a good Siren and saved this person, or this person just enjoyed the lust of a good Siren. One just never knows. LOL Thank you for sharing your talent with us.

Hi MariVal,
what a beautifully visual composition.
I love the thought that we are lead to the helping-hand of fate when we are at our lowest.

I'm all-in on the deep-dive as your metaphoric prowess leaves a lasting imprint.

Truly beautifully presented and constructed dear wordsmith!

With our thoughts we create...
the need to be saved.

Warmest regards,
James.

    Have I told you how much I like your quotes? They are always relevant and insightful.

    Thank you very much, James, not only for this review but all the reviews yesterday and today.
    I created a book for my favorite poems. When I have time I will go through my other books and choose the best ones.

    It's true, we all need to be saved at some point.

    Gracias, cariņo,

    Tu amiga, marival

This is intriguing, the imagery, the words and the palette work very well together.
I grew up reading Greek mythology and loved it all. I like the double picture, it is seldom seen. Well done.

I think at some point in time in our life we all need rescuing. Thank you for this poem that speaks of your rescuer. Some find peace and contentment through hard work and some find their way through by other means. The important thing for us to do is find our way. Thanks for sharing

This was a lovely poem likening someone being "saved" like a siren saving someone at sea. Usually they lead men to their deaths, so this is unusual but beautiful. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.
