Pirene
of Corinth
daughter of Asopus
weep for your son
Cenchrius
dead at Artemis hand
tears well up
and spring forth

Pirene fountain
sacred to the muses
healing waters
spring from the tears
of a grieving mother

Many thanks for this lovely and personal meditation on that most sacred of water, tears. May the baths heal you, my dear.
