Even to this day, in my world of dreams, he is still haunting....

Golden diadem
Long wings, the eye of the night
Goddess of the moon
Heaven in a chariot drawn
A pedestal of the throne

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.....

 My neighbour her name is Selene 
Can say things that can be obscene 
She tripped over my cat
Then exclaimed 'cooking fat!'
My son asked 'what did Selene mean?'

(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

Selene of evening
dazzles through autumn's fabric
as cloudscape hail her mystique

Guiding this pale roam
Moonlight waltzes on my trail
to brighten lackluster hope

Goddess of the Moon

Goddess of the moon
Riding silver chariot
Pulled by powerful dragons
Daughter and mother
Lover to Endymion
And a beauty of the moon

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.

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.

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

My dear Selene
you continue
to amaze me...
tonight you took
my breath away
as I espied
the veiled beauty
of your flushed face
and like a fool
was lost for words!

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....

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

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....

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.

A double Sedoka about 
Selene....
