SHORT STORIES

About princess Leda
and the divine Swan

    Herodonte tell us that most of the Zeus sweetness occurs in moments when Aphrodite inspires and takes hold of the mighty god. And now I must quick start with this love story that is very poetic.
   There was a time that was living on earth a very beautiful princess named Leda. She had a great delight in passing all day laying on the sweet grass, listening to the cicada's songs. She was often with her naked thighs exposed to the sun not being aware that she could also be exposed to the glances of the lustful gods. One day a loose tongue raven was flying all over the place when he saw the half naked princess. He started at once to make very noisy squawks. As you all know, ravens are very sensible to the naked thighs of princesses.
   The divine Zeus, who was on his way to Troy, when he heard the raven squawks and came to the place to have a look of what happened.

The god saw the beauty of the princess and He fell in love at first sight. All of you know that the gods fall in love in the wink of an eye. So Zeus the mighty, fearing to fright the princess with his shining image, took the form of a swan of great size and proud manners. He knew that princesses have always a whim for things of large size.
   The story tells us that the feathers of this swan were of a white as snow. In this guise, the swan god came slowly wagging his tail and flapping the wings to woo the princess. She was surprised with the sight of such a big and wonderful swan. So she got up and sat on the grass to better have a look of the lovely bird that was coming to her.

   Some philosophers were thinking about swans' members. So they were speculating about how big they could be in a swan of divine nature. All we know on this matter comes only to us carried by the strength of the faith.

The divine swan was swaggering and booing when suddenly he extended his long neck and made a sweet sound to trumpet his mighty love. All this swaggering and wooing lit a big flame of love in the princess' crazy heart. This was already galloping and Leda felt a pleasant and sensible heat. Temperature was rising inside the princess' and put afire her passions. And once aflame she did not hesitate to lay her body over the grass. Then she spread her tanned thighs to accept the huge swan in love. He put his palmate feet over the soft belly of the princess and she felt a great pleasure sensing the body's weight of the swan.
   Afterwards, with utmost ability, the swan brought his sensible part into the hidden place to meet the sweetest thing it is there. With a stout rosy thing the god started to caress this point that we do not dare to mention; but others are not ashamed to call it Aphrodite's bean. This place got very hot and excited with the sweet courtesy. Then it went out of her sheath vibrating and taut. The poets said it was caressed by the sweet appendage for a very long time. This tender swapping put the princess in a case of yelling out of control with pleasure. While she was in this, the divine swan entered slowly. She felt the huge bulk coming in and the fire of the god that was invading her. The bulk was expanding into her body and went just to his heart. So he enjoyed all this with a relishing that made her to pant and all her muscles shake. When it seemed that heat had been exhausted, suddenly the princess felt the divine member was penetrating again in all its glory. This made the princess to feel that nothing more could be kept inside her. At this point the different sensations came and went. The heat was rising now and lowering later; everything came up and went down slowly, once and again. This all was producing a pleasure and a heat that the princess never experienced before. Then, the swan bent his neck looking for the mouth of the princess. She opened her lips to accept the divine beak. So the swan opened his plated bill and got out... it was like a miracle!, a thick and long tongue that went inside the princess' mouth. The pretty Leda felt inside her the throbbing beat and all the fullness and the humid fire of the god. And her pleasure was so huge that her heart went galloping like wild stallion.
    In a moment the emotions were so strong that the princess start to yell like mad and it came to her body a quick shaking. It was in this very moment when the divine swan flapped his big wings with a great might. Then the divine swan cast a powerful sound with his trumpeter neck. It was such a powerful sound that it was heard in the all the Peloponnese lands.
    In response to the mighty sound, the clouds started to shower a big downpour of warm water. It was then heard a great thunder that shook all the earth. Some say the air was wavering with scents that was a call to love. And it is said that the earth was full of pleasant and loving outflows for seven years in a row. In those mythical times the warriors and the slaves were for years with their stout members up. But the ladies and the young maids were also feeling a heat down there and all they sensed some urges of very difficult contention.
    The swan and the princess were loving in this way once and again. And this weighty matter do not let them to do, nor to think, about any thing stronger than their own love.

Thirty days later, as an outcome of the sweet copulation, the princess laid an egg of semi divine nature and bulky in size. It was from this famous egg that came out three lovely young creatures, Helene, Castor and Polydeuces. These lovely children were the source of great fun for the princess and produced very pretty stories that served to feed the poets that they were singing in all banquets.
    Some say that princess Leda was made a goddess as a reward for the sweet services. But Hera, both sister and stern wife of Zeus, was very angry with this adventure of her husband. So she got an attack of jealousy as it had passed four weeks since her mighty husband was sleeping out. Hera heard all details of the story from a loose tongue raven. So she put armed guards on the Olympus' brass doors so as to impede the princess to set her pretty foot on the lands of the holy mountain.

This was mainly the reason that Zeus rewarded the princess with a vacant space in the sky. He put her there as a new star that shines to us with lovely winking into what is called the Swan's constellation. It is so, during the summer nights that we laid lazily over the dry grass watching this precise part of the sky. Then, when we see the Leda's star blinking, we remember the wonderful adventure of the princess and the divine swan in love. By these sweet thoughts we are reinforcing the very foundations of our faith in the god of thunder. He can be mighty, he can be fierce and stern but he also can have a great sympathy and love for the faithful.
