We've been over this before, but you don't seem to have understood.

> > > A Certain Music
> > >
> > > Sweet smell
> > > of Magnolia
> > > in the air
> > > as I walk
> > > by an old church.

It's really very simple to turn this into an actual sentence: all you have to do is add a "The" to the beginning and toss in a verb.

"Magnolia" is only capitalized when it's a name.

> > > Under a canopy
> > > of Spanish moss.

This is neither a sentence, nor even a complete thought.

It would, however, work as a *part* of the previous sentence.

The sweet smell
of magnolia
is in the air
as I walk
by an old church
under a canopy
of Spanish moss.

Of course your adjectives could be a little more imaginative, but at least it's no longer chimpspeak.

As previously noted, magnolias blossom neither in the Autumn nor at night, but God forbid you ever take the trouble to have your poetry make sense.

> > > My memories
> > > like the leaves
> > > around me
> > > rustle through
> > > my thoughts tonight.

Ignoring the obvious fact that you lifted this from "Cats," memories are thoughts and would find it extremely difficult to rustle through themselves.

> > > I stroll
> > > with good cheer
> > > in this
> > > balmy autumn night.

No, you don't.

You stroll in a park, down a lane and through a balmy autumn night.

However, the entire passage is pointless, dull, and should be dropped.

> > > At peace at last
> > > at peace
> > > with the past.

First off, you need to separate the two sentence fragments with something stronger than a line break.

Secondly, you need to expand them into something resembling a sentence.

I am
at peace at last;
at peace
with the past.

Of course it's trite and unimaginative and the random rap-style rhyme only draws attention to itself in a very negative way.

> > > Let's take it down
> > > to a new level
> > > take it down
> > > to sea level.

The should be some punctuation separating the sentence and its accompanying fragment.

to a new level;

Although it's unclear who the speaker is addressing at this point, or what "sea level" has to do with any of the above.

> > > I walk
> > > through
> > > smoke and fog
> > > following
> > > a certain music.

Where did the smoke and fog come from on this balmy autumn night?

Did the old church catch on fire?

If the smoke and fog symbolize muddled thoughts or doom and gloom, how do they gel with the speaker's being filled with good cheer and at peace?

The music (whatever it's supposed to be) seems to be leading him through (and out of) the gloom and confusion -- but just what is this music?

One can supply all sorts of guesses, but there is nothing in this poem that would justify any of them.

Here's what the narrative *actually* says:

I am walking down a street on a balmy autumn night. I have made my peace with my memories and am following some music (I'm guessing "Memory") only I can hear.

The basic idea isn't bad. You just need to pluck all of the meaningless bullshit out of it, write it in complete sentences and add a little something to it that makes it something more than a cliche.

If you can get it anywhere close to these lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II, it might be worth reading:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z5GAgr2A0b8

When I think of Tom.
I think of a night,
When the earth smelled of summer
And the sky was streaked with white,
The soft mist of England
Was sleeping on a hill.
I remember this,
And I always will...
There are new lovers now
On the same silent hill,
Looking on the same blue sea.
And I know Tom and I are a part of them all --
And they're all a part of Tom an me.
Hello young lovers, whoever you are,
I hope your troubles are few.
All my good wishes go with you tonight,
I've been in love like you.
Be brave, young lovers, and follow your star,
Be brave and faithful and true,
Cling very close to each other tonight.
I've been in love like you.
I know how it feels to have wings on your heels,
And to fly down the street in a trance.
You fly down a street on the chance that you meet,
And you meet -- not really by chance.
Don't cry young lovers, whatever you do,
Don't cry because I'm alone;
All of my memories are happy tonight,
I've had a love of my own.
I've had a love of my own, like yours-
I've had a love of my own.
Be brave, young lovers, and follow your star,
Be brave and faithful and true,
Cling very close to each other tonight.
I've been in love like you.
I know how it feels to have wings on your heels,
And to fly down the street in a trance.
You fly down a street on the chance that you meet,
And you meet -- not really by chance.
Don't cry young lovers, whatever you do,
Don't cry because I'm alone;
All of my memories are happy tonight,
I've had a love of my own.
I've had a love of my own, like yours-
I've had a love of my own.

He is in the Ilya Shambat school of using no articles.

We wonder if the Donkey ever really walks outside and looks around. He doesn't seem at one with Nature.

The entire Donkey is pointless, dull and should be dropped (on his head), which he probably was.

When the glaciers melt, Columbus, GA (Gooberville) will be under water (at 243 feet above sea level). Megalodons will feast on fat and gristle. Unless pissbums can walk on water, there will be no river or river walk.

Of course he does. He always searches his yard for the perfect spot to dig his daily hole.

INTERVIEWER: I suppose you don't just hold it?
WILL DOCKERY: No. I let it out just like everybody else does.
INTERVIEWER: How?
WILL DOCKERY: Well, to pee, you just go out back and pee.
INTERVIEWER: How about to poop?
WILL DOCKERY: For that, you dig a hole. Then you poop into the hole and cover it up.

The Donkey Dictionary defines "Bummy night" as "one of those nights when Will rambles aimlessly (a la 'Shambles') into the local hobo camp for a gang bang."

"Well, most kids from my era were getting it on by that age (13-14) or even earlier, myself included, but with each other, folks of a similar age… True, we do things somewhat differently down South."
-- Will Dockery, on the normalcy of sex with adolescents “down South.”

It is also defined as one of those cloudless, moonless, foggy, shining, rainy, windy, spring/winter days when it was both dry and humid and smoke curled around his toes (through the holes in his ancient shoes).
