Exceptional A Knight breaks his promise to the Goddess. Melusina - Goddess of the Waters by Aussie Write About This Poetry Contest contest entry

Virgin Knight by the River Stowe Sees a stirring of waters deep Bubbling and creaming; movement below In pale moonlight, fish do leap Melusina female form - ghostly glow Goddess of the waters rises from her keep Her beauty beguiles him - rising slow Virgin Knight - in love does leap She takes his hand, caresses his face Her beauty has won his heart He watches her elegant grace Drunk with delight - never to part Melusina and Virgin Knight He breaks his promise not to look Her bathing naked gives delight Virgin Knight drowned in bubbling brook Recognized Author Notes Melusina Goddess of the waters can be found wherever water runs - from fountain to stream she remains supreme. She walked as a human companion for the Knight on the promise that he would let her bathe alone - never to gaze upon her. She dragged him under and his blood turned to water.
