Athena

Steel-eyed Athena, wisest of goddesses,

daughter of thundering Zeus and Metis of good counsel,

patron of great heroes and adventurers,

advisor of princes and kings, your favor falls

on the bold and the clever, on those who dare

and those who tempt the noble Fates. Athena,

weaver of the finest, fairest tapestries,

teacher of art and craft to mortal artisans,

worker of metals, your soft hands guide the flow

of molten ore. Leader of battles, warrior maid,

of tactics and of strategy you know all,

of clever trickery and wiles you are the master;

with words and wit you may win much, with strength of arm

and sharpened sword, at need, you take all contests.

Athena of wisdom, Athena of skills,

goddess of the agile mind, for your works I praise you.

A splendid tribute and poem...Bravo

great poem, it is incredible and I like it a lot, but you could've added things like the Athena Parthenon. Just my own opinion. I like it a lot though. Personal request: Make one for
Thanatos :D

[Hypnos]

I already have several for Hades, and I'll see about Thanatos my friend.

[Kane]

I saw the Hades ones so I edited it out XD

[Hypnos]

LOL glad you found one.

[Kane]

^^ well, it seems like you like greek mythology a lot, but what about roman mythology? it's pretty much a copy but well you know...

[Hypnos]

Actually I've it my religion. If you want the specifics about it tell me and I'll give you a link to the website people have set up for it.

Meh, I think I don't want to believe in anything yet except Fate and Time, as well as Destiny ^^ But once I change my mind you'll be the first to know! :D

[Hypnos]

Glad to hear it my friend.
