Few Petit Fours

small finger cookies of

hankered desires bake slow

getting ready for edification

 

half formed yet browning eager

to pop out of curbed but quite

heated oven of my wayward  mind

 

my thinking cap is worn out with

numerous holes quite unsuccessfully

trying to regain my escaped serenity

 

the nuts of unfulfilled dreams, goals

and ambitions mingle freely in the dough

of my efforts gaining shape and form

 

they are now ready for presentation

being relentlessly stoked and cooked to

perfection by my dormant but true self!!

 

 

 

One must not lose desires. They are mighty stimulants to creativeness, to love, and to long life.
Alexander A. Bogomoletz

Dwell not upon thy weariness, thy strength shall be according to the measure of thy desire.
Arab Proverb
