ODE TO THE NIGHTY NIGHTS (An original poetry)
there are nights
and there are knights
I'm like a crumpled flower.
Waiting for ebb away like a mist.
In a rain forest,
The nights are here.
Birds are no more chirping
The lovely sounds of the owl
That hoots deep in the glade.
Or is it the shimmering moonlight
That squeezes it's light in my tiny window
There is a sweetness to the core
I love the sights of the billion stars
Decorating for layers of the Heavenly heaven.
The nights are when you hear the beautiful rhythm
Of the singing african children.
Dancing away in their innocence.
The nighty nights
becons me to lay down and travel to dreamland.
So I can see the beautiful thought of my lonesome day.
In an illusion where I'm emperor.
Holding my wifey wife so tightly to my skin.
Ode to the knighty nights.
I love to play in the realm between.
It's a light weightso sweetly dark.
Where you can find the animosity filled in the day.
Calmly gentle and sonorous.
Ode to my NIGHTY night
