Admirable Athena
I like to think
That if Athena lived today
She’d be the type of girl I admire
The girl who I want to be study partners with
whose notes I strive to mimic
who always studies hard for
every test and makes the highest grade
I would admire her commitment and her strength
I’d watch her refusal to back down to confrontation
I’d watch as she shamelessly put bullies in their place
I’d watch as she bravely faces challenges that seem
Too large for her to even marvel at
Her ethic stronger than steel
Her bravery never wavering
Her kindness radiating like sunshine on a
Warm inviting day
While Athena may not walk in human form
Her spirit lives on in the girls around us
And we are all lucky to have our very own
Athena to admire
