Enlil

Cuniform Whispers

By Haris HadzicPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

In the clay tablets of antiquity's grace,

Enlil's essence, an immortal embrace.

Cuneiform whispers reveal his might,

Master of heavens, a celestial light.

Upon the Ziggurat, his name inscribed,

In Sumerian hymns, his power described.

Storm-bringer, winds' orchestrator,

Enlil, ancient god, celestial creator.

From Nippur's heights, his gaze extends,

Over the realms where destiny amends.

Anu's son, born of celestial kin,

A godly saga, where myth and reality begin.

In the E-kur, his sacred dwelling,

Enlil's decrees, the cosmos compelling.

Anu's beloved, sovereign in command,

His divine will etched in Sumerian sand.

Invoke his name in ancient prayer,

Enlil, the cosmic currents declare.

Through the clay, his legacy preserved,

A god of gods, from time never swerved.
