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...QUATORZAINS: 5.
