Keith O.J. Hunt Poet Rhyme

So Many Nights

Should I have so many nights as these?

   so starry and beauteous bright?

   moon hung like silver(an) shine;

   breeze eased with earthen mood,

   the leaves rustle with lyric....

   chimed, with the bustle neath

   pinked-rose sky:

Everywhere voices, and smiles ----

   pretty girls....

   soft little lights,

   winking atop heavenly spires

As if a generous balmy-goddess 

   and her garden of sugar,

   rose and peach and cinnamon 

   sweet,  apple pie fermented

   earth about: 

   like a lovers' kiss


Even the brazen haggled man,

   cornered out;

   pockets filled a little more,

   widened smile

   (such glint in the eye!)

Like silver(an) shine ----

   he knows this be the last

   of so many nights,

Starry and beauteous bright....

   pinked-rose sky....
