The Gates Of Istar Poem by David Hart

'The Gates of Istar' by David Hart


The Gates of Istar
Now do the mountains wiggle
and giddily squirm

while solemnly sauntering
towards
A great fuming
cantankerous ocean

Sunrise... the Gate of Istar.

A blissful moon and
jolly bouncing stars

tango tersely

under
a scintillating
prickly shower of

chartreuse

Sun beams
Peace
and fervent love
blithely abound.

Now,
at the noble Gate of Ishtar.
