Hades In Spring

Summary:

A poem describing change of the seasons specifically from Hades' perspective without Persephone

Notes:

(See the end of the work for notes.)

Work Text:

How very somber the wind whispers

How dreary the sky cries

Left alone by all other than the three sisters

How slowly the cold dies

 

 

How lively the flowers bloom

How sweet the laughters fill the room

How far away seems the sirens of doom

How easily music echoes in the courtroom

 

 

How lovely is the arrival of spring

To everyone but the Underworld’s king

How greedy” he must think of the whole thing.

 

 

Winter has died to all but one

Pomegranate seeds being his only strings to his loved one

In spring, the sun is very bright

But no matter how cheerful the hum of the breeze

He grieves in a corner with ignored pleas

 

 

Yes the sun may be bright

But it will never be as beautiful as the night

He glanced at her hair under moonlight

The curls, a perfect ring

Tonight the underworld has no king

Tonight he's nothing but Hades in spring.
