Artemis' View Poem by Wre Rabaca

Artemis' View



Among the trees,
Away from the cities.
Walked a goddess,
Never seen as any less.
Until, the hunting man,
Looked upon her while he ran,
He saw an equal,
Not an angel.
Her brother grew jealous,
And just when they thought their love would be ageless,
The great hunter died.
The goddess cried and cried,
But only herself and no one else saw this terrible sight.
Her brother said it would be alright.
She swore she would have no other man,
Because no one saw her as he can,
Was her reason why.
One day she will join him in the stars,
Forevermore.

I wondered as I read your poem if this was the reason that Artemis begged her father as a wish to remain chaste and unmarried because of this tragic event.....
