• Goddess of the Dawn
• By
• Cherie Sumner

Upon stone stairs she lingers
Veiled scantily in lace
No shame in her seductive show
Flaunting naked grace
Sensual beauty serves her well
Her spell, secure turn on
Beware of morning
She is the goddess of the dawn

(Highly poetical way of depicting a Goddess of love's appearance, highly poetic and narrative, my applause. A simple definition of a myth is 'a story handed down through history, often through oral tradition, that explains or gives value to the unknown)

She will flash her green eyes of wonder
Charm with laughter
Reach between your legs
To entrance what she’s after
Nowhere to run away
Nowhere to escape or hide
She will claim your heart and soul
Once you slip inside

(Feeling Seductive? Feeling Romantic? Feeling Playful?. It is quite natural among all of us, By using all of your senses — and playing to all of his — you'll not only enhance your own pleasure, you'll have him creepy for more)

Her sneaky deed will steal your seed
For posterity
She makes love for war
Creating a mixed polarity
Made of one part strength of god
One part mind of man
A demigod nation
Willing to kill on her command

(Sex is so much about touching,  we always tend to overlook how powerful a role the other senses can play. But if you learn to revel in the sights and smells and sounds and tastes, not only will it heighten your enjoyment, it will also be awesomely seductive for the opposite sex)

She has you in her sights
Too late to look away 
Attracted to your virility
In her dark play
Enjoy her irresistible touch
While you stay
Then quiver in the morning light
Succumb as a pawn
Your privy act will strike you back
This is war
For the goddess of the dawn

(When it comes to sex, men and women crave distinctly different finger moves. Women are typically aroused by slow, gentle touches, plus lots of allover kissing and cuddling)

• BETWEEN THE LINES

_______________________________

Goddess myths have populated the human imagination and strength of mind for thousands of years, representing the eternally feminine qualities that pattern women's lives.  Each of the goddess myths is different just as each goddess is unique- motivated by different values and priorities. Each has goddess-given characteristics, both positive and potentially challenging ones..Goddess myths and intriguing stories are  full of struggles, emotions, heartache, and endurance. Think of any of these legendary ladies and stories of adventure, passion, and revenge come to mind. In antiquity the goddess myths played much the same role that soap operas do in our times.

Myths are often stories told by a particular people such as Indians, Egyptians, Greeks, Romans, and others. They are especially linked to religious beliefs and rituals. Rituals were believed to invoke a type of magic that would aid the growth of crops, insure success in war, help achieve prosperity or make choices and promote stability in the land. If nothing else, when people thought that the gods favored a venture, they approached it with a positive attitude that in itself sometimes insured success. Songs, poems, and stories help to explain how people acquired basic things like simple speech, fire, grain, wine, oil, honey, agriculture, metalwork, and other skills and arts.

A myth is an attempt to explain other things as well, such as a certain custom or practice of a human society (for example, a religious rite), or a natural process, like the apparent daily motion of the sun across the skies. In their imaginations the Greeks of ancient times saw a god (Apollo) driving a golden chariot drawn by fiery horses and dragging the sun across the sky. Deserts and snow capped mountains were created when his son Phaeton took the chariot for a ride and could not control the strong horses. While we know today why the sun and moon are in various places in the sky during varied times of a day yet we nonetheless say the sun or moon rises or sets.

Dear Poetess Cherie Sumner, Please accept my congratulations for sharing such a sensual, mythical verse to us, Hope you will entertain us with vivid themes from your fabulous poems of legends, myths , love and moreover on life as well, Regards & Love
