Transient Flame

Transient Flame (for Steve) How time flies; Like birds and bees Transient nectar Deciduous trees How leaves fall; Like stars in sky Meandering streams Passers by How oceans flow; Like blood in veins Wind over mountains Bloom strewn plains How life flames; Like a fire fly Light in the shadows New born cry by Gail

Thanks, Justin. I wrote this for a friend's birthday. He spends a lot of time in nature. I also sent it to The Order of Bard and Druids as it contains the elements of air, water, fire and earth. All the best, Gail
