Today, not in class, we talked about poetry. This month is national poetry month, and we are supposed to write a poem about Greece. I'm not a huge fan of poetry, but this assignment seems interesting. The poem is about the Greek gods. Some of the gods aren't in the poem because I couldn't think of any rhymes for them, but I have added some information at the bottom and a link to the website where I got this information.
Poseidon is the god of the sea. The goddess Athena is known to be his enemy.
Zeus is known as the god of the sky. Through the night on his thunderbolt he flies.
Last but not least of the three brothers, who are almighty, is the god of the dead, Hades.
While Ares was the god of war, Hephaestus was the god of fire and forge.
Hermes was a friend to thieves while Aphrodite was the goddess of love and beauty.
The goddess Hera is Zeus' wife and sister, and the goddess of harvest is Demeter.
Artemis, the goddess of bird and prey, is also the protector of childbirth every day.
Apollo: god of music and healing; twin of Artemis
Athena: goddess of wisdom and war
Hestia: goddess of the hearth
Dionysus: god of wine
