The Thunderer's Wives
Eurynome, one of the oldest sea goddesses, bore the Charites—Aglaea (Splendor), Euphrosyne (Mirth), and Thalia (Good Cheer)—through her union with Zeus. These three goddesses embody beauty, grace, and joy, inspiring the arts and illuminating human hearts.
Unlike many other unions of Zeus, Eurynome's story is peaceful, a flowering of joy and creativity rather than conflict or tragedy.
This song captures Eurynome’s voice: a spirit of fleeting happiness, ephemeral beauty, and the bittersweet knowledge that all splendor must someday fade.
The Glass of the Graces
I rose from sea, I sang the dawn
Before the gods, before the wrong
He touched my hand, he shaped my breath—
From silent foam, from whispered death
No sword, no chain, no storm I bear—
Only the bloom of fleeting air
Glass of the Graces, crystal and clear
We dance where sorrow disappears
A crown of light, a kiss of day—
I gave the world its fleeting May
Aglaea’s laugh, Euphrosyne’s song
Thalia’s joy where dreams belong
Through Zeus’s will, through ocean’s womb—
The Graces twine the world in bloom
No law commands, no throne sustains—
What only joy and art remains
Glass of the Graces, crystal and clear
We dance where sorrow disappears
A crown of light, a kiss of day—
I gave the world its fleeting May
Yet fragile shines what cannot stay
As laughter turns and slips away
But still we weave, and still we sing—
The fragile breath of endless spring
EURYNOME: “Beauty is not meant to rule... only to remind.”
Glass of the Graces, crystal and clear
We dance where sorrow disappears
The world will break, the stars will fray—
But still the Graces weave their day
In every smile, in every sigh—
The Graces laugh, then say goodbye
