A Burning Heart

As a summer breeze words from your lips are sweeter than honey In the sanctity of the night with the moon hovering above Inspired by reverence for unearthliness and spirituality A profound predilection for pious thought and brotherly love Has the heart burning with condemnation of apathy and brutality While encompassed with pulsating altruistic feelings And a deep consternation for retribution meanings When inwardly balancing morality and mortality AP: Honorable Mention 2020 Submitted on October 31, 2018 for contest 7 LINES, 7 WORDS: RHYME POETRY sponsored by LU LOO - RANKED 4TH
