Best Athena Poems

Athena
the dutiful daughter standing behind her father
in lightning thick with aegis assurance
read to protect her family
and counselling them times of need

Athena, the grey eyed goddess
who watches carefully with graceful wisdom
coercing ignorance into obliteration
solutions fly into her hands
for her to dispense and she desires

Athena of the...

Poseidon hurt me,
took me against my will after I swore
my body and my mind to you, oh beloved goddess
He ravaged me like a madman,
consumed by his lust and disregard for consequences.
He screamed like a fool and left me there,
shaken in your home.
Ruined in front of...

You sleep ashore with longing eyes wide,
Consciously still to swell with the tide.
Late night before the endless, black sea,
I found you wavering there for me.

But lost you against the sky above,
And woke up mournfully in love.

Sunrise I found you in the garden, streaming,
With flowers in...

A storm collides, with a mystic flame, 
It's raw force strikes, the last ancient Phoenix,
She rival's in pains agony, falling to the earth below.
The fire bird descends, crashing unto Mount Olympus, 
From burnt ashes residue, a new deity arises,
Behold it is she, Athena the golden...

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...

You fill cavities in me I never knew were there
Like you dug inside and wildly bloomed
I felt your inviting light invade the sleep
‘Til I was jarred, shorn up, and doomed  

I still think somehow I will I saturate you, too 
When he doesn’t love...

How sweet is my girl Joan whom I adore.
Much like an ancient goddess handed me
then by Zeus great god known from ancient lore.
This my Athena, choicest maid that be.
To my heart's closed door she now holds the key.
All I have I give free on low...

ATHENA

A girl so gorgeous to regard upon with grins
does protect this peaceful city with serene souls.
She blesses all the dwellers with witful arts and
cunning crafts that carve them into beautiful souls
into beautiful souls that radiate transformation
of cocoons into butterflies that fly freely
in the sky with...

Almost alive with light
Always wise and vibrant
Assured of grace and love
After the whole heart smiles
Amazed with such kind hope
Approving of great peace
Ancient god of wisdom

      Affirms truth and knowledge.
       And strong morality.
      Always offers wisdom.

Athena looked into my eyes, 
The frigidity of her heart
Softened. Athena panic’d 
Within innocence of my 
Eyes. I couldn’t help but 
Crumble at her feet. Athena 
Burst into tears. We held 
Each other until the sun rose.
How do I again hate? For 
Love is the...

Dear!  Broken is the heart 

  if nature not adored

and if zip-splashed colors

 upon tender Spring petals

does not soften the Soul!

And brevity like sudden

 delight pleases reading

eyes!
