Goddess

i spritz my sweet versace perfume

i anoint my palms with protection oil

i light these candles under the new moon

i gaze into a photo of Athena

in the most beautiful pink frame

this is her altar, after all

roses & flowers all around

a mirror to see my beauty

lip glosses & oils,

hand lotions & books

perfumes abound

my essence surrounded

my ground protected

never a loss, always redirected

my selenite standing firm

amethyst & rose quartz love to aid me

music in my ears,

that haunting voice

healing melodies, poetic words

i’m in the right frame of mind

the intentions have been set

i speak & it becomes

it is all aligned

anything meant to leave has gone

what a luxury!

i admire myself

my gorgeous body

carefully placed eyes that shine light

my stunning crown & the way it grows

my curves, my high cheek bones

my art, i’m a canvas

like a museum, they sit & gaze

wondering the stories

what does it all mean?

that is for me to know

& never to tell

for it is meant to be lived

i am her most detailed & unique masterpiece

timeless & it is evident
