TANTAL;US -- another Greek myth

  TANTALUS An ancient  Greek Myth   I can taste the  sparkling colors Dancing in the stream.. 

 

 They tease and taunt me While  I thirst, One step away and I am there One step away and I am nowhere. I feel phantom waters cool my face And  soothe my soul. Yet I thirst And Curse the hour I was born. Sapphires and diamonds. Aegean green. * So clear. So cold.
