Blue canvas of the skies
with white and ochre splashes,
sun throws its golden ashes,
the dawn is full of cries.
So day and night could part,
the salty wind is blowing,
drags Moon into my drawing,
its racing blushing cart.
The west is filled with reds,
ink shadows darken grass.
Stars blinking to surpass
departing day’s regrets.
Dark night awaits its turn,
waves roll a silver rug.
The air is now moonstruck,
night fingers play nocturne.
Accept my prayers, Moon,
soft whisper, sobbing depth.
This everning’s quiet steps
have stretched into the dune.
Street lamp’s green-yellow glow
fills sand with olive spills -
dark mirror that reveals
my pain. Tears flow.
Nocturne

Upon the scales of tinny fishes
new lips summoned, though yet mute.
But could you
to the finish
a nocturne on a drainpipe flute?
___________________________________
On the scales of a tin fish
I read the summons of new lips.
And you
could you perform
a nocturne on a drainpipe flute?
_______________________________________
Upon the fish scales’ tinsel pattern
I’ve read unknown lips’ salute
And you,
could you have played
a nocturne
On a waterspout for a flute?

Dear Clittary,
It is nice to hear from you. Why is flute?, I had in mind more like a baby grand for my night fingers to play...
Cheers

это три перевода маяковского шедевра "а вы ноктюрн сыграть могли бы на флейте водосточных труб", все три найдены гуглом и все три неуклюжи до смешного... хотела Вас развеселить :-)
Cheers!

Dear Cli,
Sorry, it was too late in a day and I have not recognised the famous line.
O tiny fishes,
that like sardines
are packed in tins…
They are delicious!
Now play nocturne
on drainpipe urn
instead of flute -
receive salute…
Cheers
