REVEL, by ABUL HASAN OF SANTA MARIA First Line: The brightest night of all Last Line: Still kept its anklet nigh. | |||
The brightest night of all The nights that I recall Was that I never ceased Upon the wine to feast. And as I strove to keep My eyes apart from sleep, To the cup's ear-ring I Still kept its anklet nigh. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...WHY DON'T THE MEN PROPOSE? by THOMAS HAYNES BAYLY THE HEART'S COLLOQUY by WILLIAM ROSE BENET THE WIFES' TRAGEDY by EDWARD ROBERT BULWER-LYTTON GETTING UP THE WINTER WOOD IN VERMONT by DANIEL LEAVENS CADY CARRY ON! by THOMAS CURTIS CLARK |
