The birth of Venus

This painting is the Birth of Venus, by Botticelli. However, in Greek mythology Venus is known as Aphrodite. She comes in many forms. Why not call her Eve as well.

The Birth of Venus

There’s a sigh in the silence and wind on the water,

a word that is stronger than death.

She was born from desire, this stardust daughter,

of fire, of rhythm and breath,

of melody, harmony, rising and falling,

with wind in her hair and an ocean calling.

She has lingering fingers and carrying hips,

there is singing and sighing and salt on her lips.

Place a hand on her heart, feel the beat of her pulse.

Hear the crashing of waves and the cry of the gulls.
