Ramshackle Review

Approbations 684
by Felino A. Sorian

—after Ahmad Jamal’s Moonlight In Vermont



Fades and returns

               amid twirling hours

                                            and

                                                          recreated nuances. Of pillared

architecture, portending meandering mood

and

                relevant cultivation among

two

amid streaks of mimicking

                                                                enunciated elation.
