Siren's Song
This pattern is named after the Greek Mythological creatures
that were dangerous yet beautiful,
who would lure sailors into peril by singing enchanted music.
The first time I read The Odyssey by Homer
these were the characters that resonated with me,
and I have high hopes to meet a Siren one day.
