    Artemis Greek Goddess of the Hunt,

    Forests and Hills, the Moon, Archery

    I am Artemis :

    Invincible to man's deceitful tune, But as powerful as the pull of the


    moon
    With her bow she hunts in the night

    H er face which is mysterious Can be seen deep in the darkness

    H er dress shimmers beneath the dark sky

    With one shot She can kill a foe

    With one shot She can defend an ally

    She is such a virtuous one

    Which can be seen when she protects the others

    H er youth can be seen when she smiles

    H er pure smile is as sweet as honey .


    Not only was Artemis the goddess of the hunt, she was also known as the goddess
    and the protector of young children and she was also known to bring and relieve
    disease in women she protects them with a fierce and ferocious devotion . she
    weeps for the girls whose innocence was not only broken, but snatched from them
    by the carnality of evil . That is why she dips her arrows in poison, that is why they
    must be slain. A massacre is left in the wake of those who dare harm the ones she
    claims.

    The foolish and the arrogant are left stunned.
