Notes About The Poem


 

 

Yearn

In the quiet night, I adore your face
So lovely. even when breathing with grace.
I yearn to kiss you, so tender and true,
Whispering my sweet nothings as I knew.

     Dawn begins to expand as we embrace.
     I kiss her luscious lips, I yearn, hearts race.
We feel the tender flame, our tangled vines,
Stars twinkle softly, fade, and the sun shines.

The multicoloured martins fly in song,
Outside buyers are busy. prices strong.
     I go down and order morning good food.
     But for our taste coffee is freshly brewed.

The balmy breeze entices us to swim.
I yearn, admiring her figure so slim.
     Alas, our honeymoon is over soon,
     We go home. In love, we yearn for the moon.

There are endless yearnings in us. We yearn our loved one's presence, embrace, kiss and sweet company. The description of your sweet honeymoon days creates a kind of nostalgia in me. A highly romantic write. Of course you are a master in composing romantic poetry. Congratulations on your win.

Such a romantic, touching read dear Victor. I like the flow of the poem and the rhymes. You have expressed yearning so poetically well here. I especially love the last stanza, ‘We go home. In love, we yearn for the moon’. Beautiful. Good luck with the contest. I’m sure Constance will love it as I did. X :)

You are super fantastic, you are not a wordy poet, hung up on language that just tries to impress. I call the refrigerator poetry. It impresses the poet but not the reader. You bring out our passions, Viictor—I find that so impressive. Love your write. Wishing you a win! Faving this beauty.)) Pangie xx
