And a fine Sunday GM to y'all, from the Left Coast (Cali)🙏🥰 I have ORIGINAL poetry for your reading pleasure, right here and now today on nostr... Never before now published anywhere... Enjoy!🙏😀🫂💖👍 FIRST PUBLICATION on NOSTR Sunday, 28 December 2025 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I Want By Duncan Cary Palmer ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I want to write music To make your heart swell. I want to frame poems Exceedingly well. I want to tell stories That make people weep. I hope that my love songs Sweep you off your feet. I want you to know How "The Church" fell away; Prolonging the night, While professing The Day. I want to live up to Why God put me here; I want to convey truth To those I hold dear. I'd like to know why Life keeps blocking my way? Why troubles keep stifling Things I need say? Pieces are missing; My soul's incomplete. I struggle My self-expectations to meet. For "want" has a synonym, Verging on black; The sad truth confronts me; "I want" means "I LACK..." God help me, I WANT! ~FIN~ #poetry #poetstr #poem #life #want
