diosa del amor -
paint a smile on the moon
flash your eyes to make it swoon
dip your toes in stardust rare
aurora highlights streak your hair
blow a kiss to flout the sun
admonishing its time is done
whisper in the heaven's ear
close the lights and draw it near
repose your form upon the stars
lustrous arms for tempting Mars
seduce Lord Jupiter and sway
wrapped only in the Milky Way
splash meteors across the sky
to catch your lover Neptune's eye
entwine with loins the planets all
made hostage to your beck and call
kiss deep the void and let it be
one pledge to grace the galaxy
that all your wiles you'll disperse
to make love to ... the Universe.
( For Aphrodite / Venus )
