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...THE LIVING DEAD by RALPH CHAPLIN THE VANISHING RED by ROBERT FROST THE DESCRIPTION OF COOKHAM by AEMILIA (BASSANO) LANYER VENICE; SONNET by HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW SIC VITA by HENRY DAVID THOREAU THE WHITE ROAD UP ATHIRT THE HILL by WILLIAM BARNES THE LOVE SONNETS OF PROTEUS: 53.
