Selene

mytho evolution

 

Amaterasu whispered to the night
as a blue world spun under a full moon

a ballerina on a highwire

dancing to quantum music

her gilded box of paradox 

in a tesseract dreamscape

a goddess is borne

secret sutras pour from jade eyes 

as she dips her brush into the light

indigo tendrils climb to the stars

as she spills hope into a wishing well

she calls her wolf to her side  

and scrys the depths of his eyes 

horse nuzzles her hand

" it is time , we must go "

they gallop bareback through the storm

to the edge of humanity

her heart laced in the language of gods 

she slips from her kimono

a brocade of glimmering Koi 

and she curls into the moon  

shimmering reflections upon a black sea

a butterfly in silk

a dove in rhythm

a living haiga 

in a surreal world ~

The Surreal Queen steeped in origins. Beautiful!

trip, cool robin

[FireWoman]

Yes! You have captured the mystery that is Selene. I adore each puzzle piece of her that you so expertly put together.

[Etoiles]

This is so beautiful. I really love the imagery.
What an amazing muse.

[roarke]

and all you have to do is allow it the space in time to reveal itself and sigh.

the words are as infinite as the images.

[Kerry O'Connor]

A stirring piece about someone who inspires the artist in many.

[Priscilla Sayers]

Okay, my exact words after reading this one...
"Oh my gosh.." Breathless with wonder. How every woman would wish a man to see her. This is truely magical in every sense. The sensuality becomes an image. You are fabulous with imagery.

I liked this one the fourth time I listened to it.

[Coyote Poetry]

You create beauty and amazing visions with your poetry. Your description allow me to follow along in the description of beauty and a surreal world you have create with the outstanding poetry. Than you.

You see deep into humanity...and create new myths.

huge applause. to both poet and muse.
this somehow does justice to everything it is, while leaving the mind space to understand and grasp all that cannot be expressed about the ever evolving music box of divine gift that is selene.
