Love Poem: Apollo and Daphne - the Eight By Four Style

Apollo and Daphne - the Eight By Four Style

~Apollo And Daphne~
(Eight By Four)


Apollo's first love
a beautiful
maiden that when
Apollo saw her
in the woods fell
in love with-but
Daphne fled from
him just frightened

Apollo was in
such hot pursuit
that when she felt
his breath she screamed
at her father
the god Peneus
who just changed her
into a tree.
