A Yearning Heart Poem by Debra Masky

Its a pleasant summer’s day and cool morning,

With the sun shining brightly through my window

I look out of the window and feel

The northern winds blowing

Melting all the snow covered mountains

A flute’s sweet music playing in the distant

Strikes a chord in my heart.



Sweet desires and hopes of you

Beset in me and I say to myself

Oh heart why must you beat

Why is it that every time you pass by me

My heart misses a beat for thee

Your smile is ever so charming

That it makes my heart beat even more.



I am in a wonderland,

Where there is soft music playing

And just you and me dancing to the tunes

Suddendly a soft winds blows

A dry leaf falls across and it felt

Like a kiss on my cheek



My heart is filled with awe and wonder

I smile when I think of you

for there is nothing on this earth

that I so desire besides you.


I have a yearning heart.
A heart longing for more

of what it had wished for

My heart is a thirsting
A thirsting heart I have

for ……..alas

I can say no more!



Amen! I wish my heart desire is fulfilled.
