The Endymion to my Selene, as he was always so endearing.
Even to this day, in my world of dreams, he is still haunting.

Mystical Moon

Mystical Moon

Sweet Selene shines soothingly,
Waxed full, full formed,
Portends potent portents of some import
Some silent, some spoken
Some sinister, some saintly.
Mystical moon, lunatic Luna..

Selene

(The Baby Machine)

Beautiful Selene, goddess of the moon
With her lover Endymion she did spoon
So prolific was she
Fifty daughters from he
Gave him eternal sleep in a cocoon

My dear Selene

Woe unto thee, O vain lover,
Woe unto him whose sheets thou dost lie under
Go on, boast of thy wealthy new lover,
Yet turn to me and rediscover all our wonder.
Prize not coin, my dear Selene,
But the true love from God in whose grace we live under.

Selene

She hears Helios overhead
driving his horses on, 
his work done for the day;
she bathes and robes,
then climbs into her silver chariot,
urging her dragons to draw
her across the inky sky,
which she will illuminate
with her beauty and gold crown.

Saturn

So favored by Selene, he gathers her moons…
a collection that enhances a sparkly plethora:
Those rings within rings, of ice he holds taut
Under his saturnine smiles, they glisten thru
regions of black; magic calling each voyager:
New wrecks to snare as he revolves taciturn …

Noble is the crown of darkness Igniting flame of evening’s post Gilded the landscape, stars enshrine Here Selene tiptoes as co-host, To hush-a-bye winds as prayers chime. I Love Five/ Five Letter Acrostic Contest Sponsor: Andrea Dietrich

Selene

Selene, I watch every night
Looking for you to come and bless us
Waiting for that one special night
When you are at your brightest
Wishes made to you at that moment
Especially wishes from loving couples
They are most times granted without hesitation
And that is how love grows for us mortals

Oh, Goddess moon, Selene, sister to the sun
raven haired matron of celestial star light,
reign in your chariot's twin dragons be as one.
Rise refreshed reborn from Oceanus's delight.
Gift the heavens with your ever changing sheen.
Wash the seaside fresh and make our bodies gleam. 
For love is always with you, as mankind basks  
in your star filled bounty, your heavenly mask.

Something Human

beautiful girls
formless of criminal honesty
falling in love with endymion

a wave is furrowed on the forehead
of selene, envy or a genetic trigger
starts a nightmare

fading star heralds a 
gray moon
leaves are falling

like my words
from your lips, are you beside
me in green silence

i was watching
the sun falling on the wings
of black birds

Selene

Swept into the night Selene..
Glistening beads her fragrance
Soft silk sensations warm breast
Sliding kissing soapy, showers; scentful
Dreams collapsing unto that the waiting
Perfumed tiles while the world disappears
The moon melting a hummingbird hovering 
Above their windows sill where she cries
Everything is right, pure; into the bedroom
They go and love as she, turns down the lights.

Selene Sensation

In radiant rays
of her romantic bright 
bloom,
she kissed the mortal 
kingdom,
In twilight's sweet touch,
her charming chariots 
charges
into the moon-made 
mansions.

Her castle-crown croons,
niftly turning night to noon,
with lips locked in lover's 
lane,
She shuns her shadows,
and seeks strength in 
sensual songs,
endeared to Endymion.

Selene.

You mere mortals I have told repeatedly. We gods and goddesses on Mt. Olympus want to be known by our true identity. I have already approached you about this. I’m the moon goddess; “Artemis” is my name. Perhaps Helios should consume you with flame. If I hear any of you call me “Selene”, I will have to do something very obscene.

Selene

Taunting and beautiful, I see you ahead, Ethereal glow inspiring me; Beautiful Goddess up in the sky, I know that you are far away Ethereal glow inspiring me; Night after night I call out to you, I know that you are far away, Why do you not answer my plea? Night after night I call out to you. Beautiful Goddess up in the sky, Why do you not answer my plea? Taunting and beautiful, I see you ahead.

Endymion some poets say
Was a King some say a hunter
But most believe a shepherd fair
And a youth of great beauty too
Then she the moon Selene saw him
Loved him and coming down kissed him
Slept beside him, slept at her whim
He never woke, lies always so
By mountainside as it death do
She lulls to sleep as she kiss him.
