Beauty Of Venus Poem by Amber Piercy

Beauty Of Venus

Prompt: The Tortured Queen Of Venus!

She owes nothing to this place, but this is where she belongs.
Queen to this lonely planet.
Her royalty sings the boldest songs
Her times been lost and spent

Her golden hair, like embers from the sun
Face of mere mortal beauty
Venus is where her story begun
This is who she was born to be

She rules her people out of respect and love
Walking with the grace of the moon
Her soul came from the God's above
She's a hurricane's monsoon

Her heart is as fierce as a lion
Nobility runs in her blood
The places her feet has been
They've walked through the deepest mud

But still she shines brighter than any star
Happy to be this fierce queen
She would travel near and far
And go to all the places unseen

Born to rule these lands, it is her fate
This is what she is meant to do
Her soul will have to wait
Until she can be closer to you
