Yearnings

As sun sinks low and stars come out, my passion starts to burn; the darkness causes hopes that shout this pining poet’s yearn. I sit and ponder for awhile the dreams I long to find; the thoughts of you and your sweet smile weigh heavy on my mind. The reveries of your sweet love, my passion’s paradigm; as moonbeams flutter from above these moments sealed in time. May 21, 2019
