Arethusa By Percy Bysshe Shelley

The poem Arethusa by Percy Bysshe Shelley follows the myth of the water nymph, Arethusa, who had coins struck and a popular cult following - she is assisted by the ocean in taking a journey from Greece to Italy to escape unrequited love, and is turned into a fountain on the island of Ortygia. This is connected to the account that objects tossed in Alpheus river would spring up in Ortygian wells. This track was assisted by a purring cat, Osiris, and has singing bowls in the background.

It’s always comforting to hear your soothing voice Kristen (whether here or in a Live session) and the purring cat is a nice touch.😀

Ohhh thank you dear Kristen for sharing your kind poem I felt like a little girl when my beloved granny spoke poems to me...
