My Poem Dedicated To the Greek Gods...
Zeus, thou art the king of gods,
The ruler of the heavens,
Wielder of Aeigis and the lightning rod,
Which are your personal weapons.
Poseidon, thou art the earth-shaker,
The ruler of the seas,
Weilder of the trident, brother of the rain-maker
The gifts of horses made from thee.
Hades, thou art the god of rich,
The ruler of the dead,
Made thy home by river Styx,
In the underworld of dread.
Aphrodite, thou art the goddess of beauty,
you are like no other,
Sympathetic, elegant, and ever so pretty,
In the hearts of many lovers.
Athena, thou art the goddess of wisdom,
And ever so athletic,
You are a fine craftsman and the only one
To wield Aegis,whom Zeus entrusted.
Ares, thou art the god of war,
brutal and loves to destroy,
strike one blow with your mighty sword,
to kill one with lust and joy.
