Athena

Beauty!a major gift to her.
Swift in swords art,
A lover of wisdom,
A heart stronger than steel
The sight of her beautiful city
 Laid wake all night
Giving thanks to their
Beautiful patron goddess

The sight of athens
Was nearly as beautiful as athena
With the owl as her symbol
Of peace and justice.
Athena!a beautiful and
Wise warrior princess
The pride of Olympus

Athena!the heart of her father
Her beauty knew no mother
She was talented like no other
Her vast rule knew no border
She was bathed with gold
And rays of sunshine.
Her love for wisdom made
her unique in a godly way

With her sword of wisdom on
Her right hand and a shield
Of experience on the left,
She led her people to war 
And always came back victorious
Athens was the pride of greece
Gifted with great men...
of great many talents.

It all leads back to her
The patron goddess athena
She ruled with peace and justice
Her uniqueness revealed itself
In many ways.....Of all on
Olympus,she was singled out
As the wisest and bravest
To have ever lived.
