Return of Athena

pastel monarch butterflies flowed out of the lily pad as if by magic
explosion of a kaleidoscope of colors, mostly lavenders and pinks
heralding the unexpected but delightful return of the Goddess Athena.
Athena had not graced Earth for four thousand and thirty-one years.

reverant admiring azure sky turned coral and pink in her honor
animals and bugs in the meadows and forests stopped moving
Listening for the sound of wings, a flute or a harp
Athena arrived straddling two pure white unicorns with silver wings
