Written in 2010. Pronunciation note: "Nimüe" is pronounced "nim-WAY".
Did not foretell the ending of the day
When 'pon his yearning loins and his heart
Twined the sensual beauty of Nimüe?
Darkest black night, no blessings from the moon;
Yet purest of ecstasy and magick
Bodies twisting, loving, they both did swoon
Did she really think he was hers to trick?
The cost to him was low: prisn'd in a tree
To Nimüe it was high: she deemed she'd die
She knew not of his allies who would free
Merlin to go once forth again to fly.
Never try to trick an immortal who
Always thinks ahead whene'er he would woo.

Merlin and Nimüe
Can you believe that Merlin, by his artDid not foretell the ending of the day
When 'pon his yearning loins and his heart
Twined the sensual beauty of Nimüe?
Darkest black night, no blessings from the moon;
Yet purest of ecstasy and magick
Bodies twisting, loving, they both did swoon
Did she really think he was hers to trick?
The cost to him was low: prisn'd in a tree
To Nimüe it was high: she deemed she'd die
She knew not of his allies who would free
Merlin to go once forth again to fly.
Never try to trick an immortal who
Always thinks ahead whene'er he would woo.
