This My Heart Cries Out, Is But A Sad Song

I shall drinketh not of Life's poison draught
Nor when famished, yield to its pleading thirst
Of Hope, goodness in Life, I was this taught
What ego so swells, it will also burst;
As man walks in darkness his steps...

Where Green Forests Wrap Desirous Land

Across the midnight divide in a shroud,
this soul sails upon glistening gold wings.
There with vanity and what pride allowed,
my seeking heart wanders along and sings.

Beneath snow covered summit my joy shouts
where green forests wrap the desirous land.
To find me, hire...

In Pursuit of a Desirous Lady…

Your deceitful tease
and illusive behavior
are beyond compare;
your blind promise
has yet proven
that you really care.

How long
must my soul lowly hang
like unbalance strange fruit---
dripping trails of fallen red juice
as I chase you in desirous pursuit?

They say
only death rivals 
your equanimity---
fool I was---thinking

Sans Whole Body Out Of Country Transplant

Those nights disturbed by dreams of passion’s touch,
Her lips the rose inspiring gentle sighs,
That break the fear my heart demands too much.
The essence of her breast wears no disguise,
As pulses echo in love’s tender kiss,
In this desire there is no compromise.
Should darker fears then create...

We are made 
to be free 
Together 
Who does not desire peace? 
Who does not desire happiness? 
Who does not desire life?
So obvious and yet so complicated

Love is ageless
It is always incipient 
Who does not desire love? 
Who does not desire warmth? 
Who does not...

Much In their hands,
Sufficient in their barns,
Blinded to others' sparse lands,
Inconsiderate to their scattered darns.

He is eager to break a record
But a lot plays with loafers’ record:
The Leanest Time to wonders accord …

He is The Gasping for a record
But in his left ear an oft fixed cord;
Not with scholarship in accord …

The Anxious-to-Create-a-Record
Still in his heard speeches Hacked Concord
And...

Desire crawled toward her lover-
She was by contempt convered:
When no coin tend to serve you right.
You make a new rule and toss a new dice.

She'd been exposed to pollution,
After Zeal was bethroted to contemption.
Then none is ready to perceive any longer her lyrics,
For the contemptous...

hunger awakes desire to eat
tiredness begets the urge to sleep
being alone, this being, is besotted
with companionship and distraction
from the endless chore of self-absorption
'tis stoic to delay and contemplate
before quenching those desires.
because staying hungry, staying desirous
keeping the want unrelinquished, unfulfilled
is a discipline that
keeps the mind alert...

Passionate One
by Michael R. Burch
 
for Beth
 
Love of my life,
light of my morning,
arise brightly dawning,
for you are my sun.
 
Give me of heaven
both manna and leaven,
desirous Presence,
Passionate One....
