The Full Moon

The Full Moon

Copyright © SHRAVANI MUKHERJEE

Its that hour of the day when..

Waiting for Hypnos to sing his lullaby

But staring from the curtained panes

Is the pearly Selene in the night sky

Many a Endymion hath fallen

Tangled in her web amor

The enchantress of Nyx

She is the Diana hallowed

A silvery shield, very gloriously pale

From atop the Olympian highs

Awed and revered by the twinkles

The stars are showering in Luna’s light

The full moon enchantingly bewitches

And drowns me in somnolence away from all plights
