Yearning for
You…
Your passion, unhinged
Your desire, unquenched
Your touch, unfettered.
You and only
You.

JD Writes Poetry Challenge #9
This week I’m asking you to write a poem, any poem, in any form, long, short, with or without bells on it. The only thing I’m insisting on is that you start each line with the same letter.
Head down

I remember when –
Saturdays were for cartoons
And sleeping in late.

When the light is way too bright
and the darkness is too deep
When the laughter is just a matter
of hiding the fear you keep
When all the strife that’s in this life
is enough to make you weep
Know I’ll be there for you
I will be there.
When you’ve done the good that you could
and it doesn’t seem enough
When you’ve hit the wall after giving your all
and things just seem too tough
When you’ve got to live with nothing left to give
and the going gets too rough
Know I’ll be there for you
I will be there.

As summer gives way to the fall
The sun sets lower in the sky
As it cast long shadows on all.
The breeze blows ever cooler
The heat gives way to a winter’s chill
And with Autumn’s last gleaming
Gives in to the changing seasons will.

In fields of stone, where my heroes rest,
Who went to war and gave their best,
Whose names are lost to ages old
Yet deeds recalled in stories bold Continue reading Memorial Day…
I dare not ask these things of you,

I dare not ask these things of you,
Given the circumstance.

It might seem I don’t know. Continue reading I Dare…
