The Meek Shall Inherit the Earth

Thirst for love aflame in our heart Erst stirrings of lust receded Burst of bliss each moment does start First things first, lower mind weeded Residual attachments fade Central funnel within aglow Brutal clear truth; call spade a spade Miracle dawns on hearts mellow 19-January-2021 (syllabic Lento)

Thanks Regina! I’m not a Christian by religion but something along these lines is from the Bible actually, if I’m not mistaken. Edit: Matthew 5:5, says Google!

A very thought provoking piece. Nicely done. Sometimes when our first love comes along we think it should last forever but it is only infatuation. Sometimes we kiss a lot of frogs before we find a prince. A fine write. God Bless, JB
