Sotto Poet Poet Rhyme

Burning Glance

Written: October 04, 2025, for contest sponsored by Line Gauthier

            **************

Soft longing glows
         beneath the rose
                of glances brushed in hush and height
       and if her gaze
                           should set ablaze—
  don't draw me away from that sight.
