Notes About The Poem

A Rainbow Incensed

I like faint fire I feel
fueling me with fervor
for far off places without you

I like sweet scent of spring I smell
when you fan the flames
ignited by your carefree hand

I like warmth seeping in
letting my blood course free
with unpredictable energy

I like refreshing air I breathe
just seeing freedom lay waiting me -
sole initiator of breezy times

I like option one and two 
of the whole shebang of things
I am free to do, or not do

I like how instant choice to vent
is mine, though time after time
... I've crossed no line ...

I like solitary silence
taking me by the hand
Soothing aches you've unhand

I like Creator's time
so packed with magic
My sole therapeutic fix.

Hi Iris, I like your poem and I gravitate to: "I like option one and two" because like you I am free to do or not do
