ARDOR, by                    
First Line: Others make verses of grace
Last Line: And burn with the ardor of living.
Subject(s): Singing & Singers; Songs


Others make verses of grace.
Mine are all muscle and sinew.
Others can picture your face.
But I all the tumult within you.

Others can give you delight,
And delight I confess is worth giving.
But my songs must tickle and bite
And burn with the ardor of living.
