NaPoWriMo Day 30

 Hello!

The prompt for today is to write where the speaker is compared to a character from myth or legend.  My very first NaPoWriMo poem was about Aphrodite, so I decided to end this year by circling back to the beginning and using that as inspiration for my poem today. Enjoy!


Aphrodite's Day Off

It's Aphrodite's lazy day
a time to let her cares float away.

Her yoga pants make her butt look good
but she wears her oversized comfy sweater, the one with the hood.

Her clothes have stains, her hair is a mess
she's the goddess of beauty but from her appearance you'd never guess.

Today she is away from other's eyes
so has no need for her sexy guise.

Though men always think of her as sublime
a goddess doesn't need to be beautiful all the time.

Today she will do whatever her heart does desire
and tomorrow return to causing hearts to be set on fire. 


Thanks for reading!  Another year of NaPoWriMo complete.   See you next year!
