Selene by 1234567890 published on 2024-03-24T00:47:08Z This world of ours is nuts. So, in an act of utter lunarcy I have decided to marry the moon and bugger off somewhere else. Herewith my serenaded pledge of love and proposal of marriage. I have every confidence. Goodbye everyone. Goodbye. __________________________________________________________________________ Selene Now every sun has set Dark as it can get No dawn will bless my crescent dreams Of touchdown on your crater lips Sweet penumbrally eclipsed Selene Entrust me to Tranquility’s sea of moondust for infinity Phase my mind with dark-side thoughts pristine Selene Unpick your tidal lock Let that planet run amok Let’s spin away to astral pastures green Helium-3 wedding isotope We’ll solar system-atically elope Selene Ultimate caesarean birth, father Theia and mother earth I adore your ellipsoidal slight scalene Selene Your pert axial tilts will carry me, ah won’t you marry me? We’ll wax and wane as one, making moonlets, the stars between Selene _______________________________________________________________________ Photo courtesy of NASA Comment by DavidHutton I am having to look up a few words - but this is brilliant 2025-10-31T12:08:20Z Comment by Jim Mcgill still as beautiful as always👍 2025-08-03T23:24:14Z Comment by chalcedony blue grand to listen to this beauty again, Peter 2025-01-06T19:45:09Z Comment by Jim Mcgill Isn’t she beautiful………just like this song 2024-12-18T01:40:46Z Comment by amethyst skies wonderful, Peter 2024-12-12T19:08:24Z Comment by Ingo Bremenkamp 👌😉 2024-11-12T08:49:17Z Comment by Shyntwirl ♪ Beautiful Voice lyrics and instrumental 💎 2024-08-04T06:34:03Z Comment by Shade Structure Beautiful song. 2024-08-02T13:15:01Z Comment by BeSinger Another masterpiece! 2024-08-01T13:36:31Z Comment by Till Indy very beautiful !! 2024-07-02T17:24:02Z Comment by Sonni Quick Beautiful and so well written. 2024-06-25T07:42:49Z Comment by Brian Peters Ah sweet selenophilia, Peter!!! 2024-05-31T15:49:32Z Comment by markjbennett Loved this one Peter and also The Trial on other clouds.

Selene will be sporting quite a magnificent ring in just a few days with the eclipse. I'm sure it cost you a fortune. I know she'll be impressed, and might even say "yes" to your proposal. I hear she has a lot of influence especially on the oceans. May be she can wrangle a honey "moon" cruise;)) 2024-03-30T23:45:34Z Comment by Paul Haas Lovely lovely 2024-03-29T00:40:24Z Comment by 1234567890 @watermelontour: Precisely so, Mark. :) 2024-03-28T21:27:41Z Comment by Bruce Avery This poetic proposal has surely lassoed the moon Peter – no turning back now. I hear she’s got a dark side, can even make people crazy, but it just may be a lunartic you’re looking for (yeah I caught that in your prologue). Anyway, take care of our girl, and keep her safe from earth shadows & probing rovers. 2024-03-28T04:10:03Z Comment by warfydave Good luck - Great song. 2024-03-26T13:11:33Z Comment by Debra Buesking Best wishes to you, Peter. I’m sure you and the Missus will be very happy. 2024-03-25T17:39:29Z
