A Garden Goddess

I beheld a garden of flowers
That graces an awesome hill;
Thrilled that same hour
By the garden goddess of the hill.

She handles with poise, 
And fights like a warrior;
With the melody of her voice,
She counters terror.
 
Behold the garden goddess!
Majestic as a chess Queen;
Elegant like an Empress
On throne of dazzling sheen.

Her realm is eternal!
Her pride like that of a Fane;
Her prowess is supernal!
Her fame shall never wane.
