Yearn

"Yearn with passion so the world sees the sparks fly! ~ by poet Where’s that intensity in your longing? Where’s that passion in your love? Where’s that fervor in your devotion? There’s no yearning left in the romance There’s no potency in the prayers There’s no aching of the heart No desperation in the soul, No lure of the muse There are no enchanting spells, The flame doesn’t burn with the vigor to draw moths to its light— I see the earth smoldering silently and my world turns to ashes… Yearn, O my heart, yearn with gusto! ~05/04/23 ~Contest: Writing Challenge 'Y' words ~Sponsor: Constance La France
