Noble Maiden Fair

in #poetry7 years ago

They speak of tales and sing of songs
about the maiden by the sea
on fleeting days and nights so long
they choose what they want to see

On tides that ebb, awash at shore
the maiden stood and raised her voice
she spoke of words that they abhor
a lamb to slaughter, without a choice

The waves come and yet the waves go
but still they break upon the beach
a sailor comes and can’t say no
to the lass with words that can teach

The blood of those who preach telltales
flows toward the depths of water
winter can’t breach the ancient sails
but blood still pours from the slaughter

Now those who choose to hear and see
cannot believe beyond compare
the mistook lass down by the sea
is one, noble maiden fair

Hey! Welcome to Steemit! This community is amazing but does take some getting use to since it’s a bit different than the other social media platforms.

I joined Steemit December 30th, 2017 and have had a blast networking, learning and earning (actually made some pretty good money so far)!

I'd suggest signing up for these free applications for Steemit that gets you upvotes and followers. The first thing you need to do as a new user is to increase your STEEM POWER (SP), which increases your visibility and voting power. These were a huge help for me.
