Friday's Merriment
From a luminescent skyscape, I gaze below
Where metronome's pulse rushes on.... never slow
The city lights display an evening,all aglow
As festive mood along side-streets bounce to and fro:
In a tavern, women prance with an overflow
Of live music as laced hems flutter---what a show!
Pitched voices from cafe aisles hit a tremolo
Like boomerang of laughter’s spray,fun hours row
When gaiety warms Friday with red of Merlot:
That nigh breezes act as crooners to tunes they know
Igniting toil's break from weariness to hello...
For merriment links all kinship and makes joys grow!
