Love so divine.
A poem of Gods and romance
Our love was born out of Athena's head,
crafted by the soft hands of Aphrodite,
hardened by the gaze of Ares,
and is a muse to Apollo.
It is tended by Hestia,
our bonds built by Hephaestus,
and blessed by Hera herself.
Valentine's Day is eternal for love so divine.

If You Love Me, You'll Do It
I met Jason when I was five years old. I could say that I loved him from the moment I saw him. He was so handsome to me and I felt in awe by his presence. When they introduced him as the new kid in school, I wanted to be his friend right away. I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember his smile and how he didn't seem shy. He appeared confident and ready to learn. I waved at him and said "hello," before anyone else could even say a word. He sat next to me, and I asked him if he wanted to be friends. He looked so happy as he said, "Yes!"

I haven’t read a Valentine’s Day poem like this, I enjoyed it very much
Valentine's Day is eternal for love so divine. A bit of Greek Mythology. Absolutely Beautiful. Nicely Done!!
I'm currently teaching Greek Mythology to my freshmen, so I thoroughly enjoyed all of the allusions to the pantheon! Especially Hestia; no one seems to ever remember Hestia, but she's one of my favorites. Well done!
As a lover of Greek mythology, of course I loved this! Very creative and amazingly so much spoken in only 50 words. Well done ❤️
Love the mythology angle so much :) Congratulations!
Lovely work, Leigh! Wonderfully clever weaving of the symbolism of the Greek pantheon. Congratulations! :)
Wooohooooo congratulations on your win! 🎉💖🎊🎉💖🎊
Ouuu, I love that line at the end tying it all together, "love so divine." This is wonderful!!! Congratulations, Leigh!!
