Goddess

peto

She hovers over hallowed ground 

Creates the most delightful sound 

Runs with the fox hunts with the hound 

The goddess of the night 

 

A heart as cold as arctic ice

Thaws every time she takes a slice 

Her virtue doubles as her vice 

The goddess of the night 

 

A power to bring giants to their knees 

Unlocking hearts with master keys

Her hug disguised her fatal squeeze 

The goddess of the night 

 

A juggernaut of wit and charm 

When reapers took her  by the arm 

Was they who wound up at the farm 

The goddess of the night 

 

She's out there now still standing tall

With scissors for your paper wall

Deciding if you're due a call

The goddess of the night
