A Villanelle Inspired by "Cry Of The Siren" by Ed Org
Introduction
Ed Orgs art is beautiful and fascinating. I have chosen this for my 3,400th post on Vocal.
This is an Ekphastic Villanelle
Ed's Facebook page is here:
You can buy it online at his store here.
The music is a cover of the Tim Buckley "Song To The Siren" by This Mortal Coil.

When I Heard The Siren's Song

A Dart at Dusk
Seconds ago, the sullen sun set on the two of usβ¦ my exuberant furry companion and me. A fresh breeze embraces us, delivering welcome relief from the dayβs oppressive heat. His typical stumbling and staggering along β apace with a sloth β has turned into trip-trapping, high-stepping, almost skipping along.
