Simmias and Pattern Poems

 

#Simmais #patternpoem

This is the earliest known example of a pattern poem created using the Greek Alphabet created by Simmias of Rhodes. Well a copy anyway. You can find more of these in the Greek Anthology.

Remember its metrical not rhyming! Let me know if you would like me to transacribe more or redo this poem in a more modern font?
