A stirring of yearning

Expressions from within

What brings sorrow to my eye,but the loss of thoughts brought to demise,what causeth tear to fall,but each thought ner be sought to its own call,selfless alone to its own fate,nor can any ever emulate,words of grandeur,depth of tone no one ere did own

There's something very romantic about the old English style of speaking.
Beautiful poetry. Or would this be considered prose?

[Kent Rawski]

I would gather it to be poetry I am not experienced much in prose and all my tastes for everything seem to run in a classic fashion the olde English is neat though I don't have much experience in that either

[Kent Rawski]

Of the little I've written this has the most meaning to me and was my 1st on here

[Edie Blue Starfish]

Why does it hold the greatest meaning?

[Kent Rawski]

It came to me years after my wife had passed

[Edie Blue Starfish]

Thank you for sharing that, it makes it that much more meaningful.

[Kent Rawski]

Thank you for kindness

so Shakespearean! makes me take me time reading so to absorb the full effect ;) thoughts are easy aren't they ..but the actions to accompany ..quite another story ... unique form you chose to put this in ... looking at it i am like ... hmmm two lines of prose!!! what can it hold??? but reading ... it really has all the lines of poetry .. you just strung them all together ... unique and creative .. love the depth of theme and the archaic language ..you took a bit of a risk says i ... but it does work!

thank you E you hit the nail on the head thoughts are easy while an accompaniment of action could take an whole ensemble, but as a novice nothing to prove and not much to lose, its what swelled in my throat to release

[Kent Rawski]

[DIVYA]

I’m not an impoverished Bengali

[DIVYA]

....And probably better than all your generations put together 😸

[Kent Rawski]

Was not meant as a criticism but a compliment if I an American could speak your native language very well would you not take notice which I can't

[Kent Rawski]

Btw of the few of my writings this one means the most to me

[DIVYA]

Carry on with your business

[Laura Kate]

but each thought net to be sought to its own call .....
So sad. Seems like such a waste, bright thoughts left alone to their own demise, and we mourn our lost thoughts and broken expectations.
Heartening but lovely

[Kent Rawski]

[Laura Kate]

'A stirring of yearning'
Kent Rawski,
We live within ourselves a world apart. It is a place of memories and feelings, realities from our own life's beginning. Your above poem seems the song of these contents coming forth to your mind-heart. Oh, that they may find life and fulfillment!
Loved it.
Blessings,
Kathy

[Kent Rawski]

Thank you for your ability to bring out depth into light very few would attempt what you did so gracefully and I am grateful

[Kathy Van Kurin]

You are more than welcome. The fact that so many people do leave reviews is sure nice! Including you.
