'2010/04/20 Charming Maiden



Saturn stole the Moon Maiden
from Pluto’s dark nether realms
took her away from Mercury’s
glittering charms, plucked her
from Neptune’s dreamy arms

Saturn took the Moon Maiden
to the top of his mountain where
the breath-taking view enthralled
her, loved her with overpowering
feelings till breaking of dawn

Saturn was redeemed by the Moon
Maiden’s love, rejoicing while the
other gods looked on in frustration
wondering how Saturn won the Moon
Maiden’s hand from powerful gods

Like entertaining Mercury, sexy
Pluto and glamorous Neptune,
royal Jupiter and warlike Mars,
how could stern Saturn, scolding
and cold, steal the Maiden’s heart

They could not see the soft light
in his eyes, charming the Maiden,
when he smiled in the Moon
Maiden’s healing embrace…
