ODE TO THE NIGHTS..

Z.jpg

Night of Nights, prince of day's rear
On benign grassy plain of Mokudun
On my back, with my love, upwards gaze
Serene, recall, as one night of Bethlehem

Besieged, magnitude cluster of lilies- east
Multitude of chrysanthemum and carnation- south
Host of daffodils- west, orchids and tulips up north
'Charge unruly beauties, swallow us betwixt you'

Aged gracious mount, fat as porpoise
Housing woods' perils, perturbed fugitives
Banished sojourners, perhaps Robinhoods
With irregular countenance, slippery surface

Antediluvian elongated mustards- the space fondle
Sycamores and oaks shadow the nude lowland
Willows impinge aesthetic arts thereon
Bluebells, daisies, primroses beneath buzz night's tunes

Uplands- pillared by gargantuan Igneous
With swaying beeches and ashes and figs
Outdid the lowlanders, casting intimate, inseparable
Ray acquaintance over, as blanket- encamps.

But Omni-king beyond- stare below
The starry cloudless sky disseminate eternal
Freely offer inhabitants inexhaustible vacuum
Full moon enthroned, set the earth ablaze

My love envision with diamond stars abide in tabernacle
'They're kings and queens, serving kinsmen
Translating mankind to paradise's tenants'
Bearing up at brightest, 'you are one'

But I, metaphor the stars- bleached angels
Surfing afterwards the weary markets of priced agates
Hence homewards march, to purged, uncursed land- moon,
Emancipated of deplored eyes, wrathful eyesores

Thus, 'We are part'
