What Was He Looking For?

What Was He Looking For? belongs to the following groups:

ABSTRACT DIGITAL ART AND WRITING, Core [C.O.R.E], Light In The Darkness, Not What It Seems and Up & Coming Writers

What was he looking for?

As he was hasty sometimes

Revealing all his talent like a gale wind

And then waited for that one he was looking for

To polish his letters and his hide.

He was ready for more but he drank like a fish

And he was only spilling the beans when he wanted

Assurance that none were better..

Nope not here he knew

Like his mother

Planning every spring to plant purple lilies

But time came for spring

She began her serge for unseemly things.

Could have been her he had leanings toward

What was he looking for?

Quite bored you could say

As the sparkle of time gave way

But just another month or so

Then …right then he would go.

    Beautifully explaining eternal longing. And as you know, the secret is to turn that longing into presence. Only there lies the soothing of the aching. Wonderful writing, Lina. You always amaze me. Delightful!
