“Hands of the Goddesses”

A woman

Carved meticulously

From hands of the goddesses

Aphrodite said

Make her bold

Give her the softness

And the angles

That crown her face

With beauty

Make her eyes

As though they are

The ones longed for

By the universe

Athena said

Make her courageous

Give her the power

To create love

Hope

Wisdom

Upon any surface

Of any planet

Without hesitation

Without regret

With passion

Artemis said

Allow her the strength

To conquer

Any army

With just a look

No weapons

For her kindness

Will defeat

Any enemy

Demeter said

Give her two children

They will challenge

And strengthen

Her soul

With unfathomable love

And care

Endlessly about

One another

They will be

An undefeated

Army of three

The goddesses argued

About the meaning

Behind her name

They said

It should mean

Bold

Soft

Beauty

Courage

Love

Wisdom

Passion

Kindness

Strength

Hera said

Her name

Should be a tribute

That wraps

Each and every quality

Into one

Coleen

It’s perfect

A woman

Carved meticulously by

Hands of the goddesses

She shall hold all

Love

Wisdom

Passion

Kindness

Strength

Beauty

That the universe

Can withstand
