in yearning design
Of strung about phrases
so often I find

Of lustful desires
in worded delight
Of fine woven weavings
in wondrous plight

And the well worded wanderings
who’s meaning is naught
For one’s lack of knowledge
wisdom is sought

And there in our plunder
the pages we fill
In spite of our ignorance
we try to instill

These thoughts that we find
the cause of our yearning
So often confusing
forever discerning

The urges that plague
as they taunt and they tease
That once written down
our words they do please

The belief that we feel
our thoughts do portray
At least in our prayers
in hope we do stay

Upon the true path
that our hearts have taken
and our journey in life
is never forsaken

A trial of temptation

A trial of temptations
in yearning design
Of strung about phrases
so often I find

Of lustful desires
in worded delight
Of fine woven weavings
in wondrous plight

And the well worded wanderings
who’s meaning is naught
For one’s lack of knowledge
wisdom is sought

And there in our plunder
the pages we fill
In spite of our ignorance
we try to instill

These thoughts that we find
the cause of our yearning
So often confusing
forever discerning

The urges that plague
as they taunt and they tease
That once written down
our words they do please

The belief that we feel
our thoughts do portray
At least in our prayers
in hope we do stay

Upon the true path
that our hearts have taken
and our journey in life
is never forsaken

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
