A Yearn For Normalcy

I
                    yearn for
                    normalcy
                   Awakening
my dormant, sleeping imagination

  Wistfully searching for idealism
                  Envisioning
                 the world as
                     it once
                       was

Gershon Wolf Date: 8/19/2020 8:44:00 PM I somehow missed this superb rendering of yearning the first time around, Edward, but at least got a second chance.
