Earths oldest Daughter Andromeda wept tears of gold,
Andromeda swore to give away her tears because her mother told her to never to be greedy,
Andromeda would give her tears to people who she thought deserved it,
Such as peasants, common folk, and mothers,
Mars grew envious and hateful of Andromeda because she never gave him any of her tears even though he thought himself worthy,
So when night fell Mars stole her away,
He told her,
Until you weep the Tears of Gold I deserve you are mine,
Andromeda knew even when she wept her tears he would never return her to her mother so,
She vowed to never shed a tear again,
When Mars heard of her vow he was enraged,
So enraged that he took his dagger and tried to cut out the gold for himself,
Andromeda's screams were heard light years away,
Mars thought he had succeeded,
But really he had cut out her eyes,
Leaving Mars with not a drop,
And Andromeda succumbed to her wounds,
And died,
When the Earth found Andromeda's limp body she laid her so high in the sky for everyone to see what Mars had done,
The other planets took pity on The Earth and changed Andromeda's body into a beautiful galaxy so bright and so large you can never miss it,
Even Eons after her death Andromeda still shown brighter than before,
Even when the Earth was over run by man and was dying,
Andromeda shown so beautiful that The Earth wasn't afraid of her impending death,
For she would go to Andromeda,
And see her oldest Daughter once again.
