AMOROUS LOVE
Back in May of 2023, ILA Magazine offered a Word of the Week Ghazal Prompt Challenge, the requirements to apply both words (amorous and amorphous) into their ghazal. Out of only nine entries, we chose the ghazal below. Amorous love which to be a desire amorphous
Evolving and transform in suspire amorphous
Sometimes advances in a lustful intention made
Progress not done in moment signifier amorphous
Desire deepens for a beauty embedded in memory
In form not definite due can't be rectifier amorphous
But essence of attraction like a magnet moves on
Remain illusion of the heart bristlier amorphous
Love never consummated in the manner of lovemaking
Stayed on imagination suspend like twiddlier amorphous
Amorous desire never fades in mind boggling waggling
Like an addiction no realization in pricklier amorphous
Sexual desire that no gateway in the midst of journey
In a path that never had destination unpatrifier amorphous.
