To Mark
Are you a mere man, or a god,
Sent to mortal woman as a gift?
Beloved of the Gods,
Divinely tall and divinely fair.
Will Zeus envy Adonis
His earthly tryst,
Or will he smile
And allow Elysium to rule on earth?
Are you a mere man, or a god,
Sent to mortal woman as a gift?
Beloved of the Gods,
Divinely tall and divinely fair.
Will Zeus envy Adonis
His earthly tryst,
Or will he smile
And allow Elysium to rule on earth?
