Baptism By Fire

Ashless shall thee For a moment Or forever be Fair Lady, forsake what has passed Partake of purification Walk with me upon love's life path Into baptism by fire Manifestation in its touch Beyond these tabernacles Desire or lust To the heart of spirits conversing Where no spoken word is needing But yet if It shall be a gift floating Like breaths of the songbird singing Or swallowed butterflies wild And trails dancing Lit by starlight smiles And Spring will nevermore Be, just one day Or a mere season But in sense Shall be all in one feeling To bring the bells The bells of wedding When wills are aligned It is time For exhales to be echoed from the dark
