ETERNAL FLAMING LOVE…

The flames of a fire blaze

and flicker up and down

the line of their fuel;

In the furnace of my heart

love’s flames are flickering

forever upward—warmly;

The salty waters of hate

tease love’s flaming blaze

but are evaporated smokeless:-

Thus is love’s warming eternal grace;

for wherever the flames of love abide,

hate’s filthy waters are forever dammed.

The flames of a fire blaze and flicker up and down the line of their fuel; In the furnace of my heart, love’s flames are flickering forever upward—warmly. The salty waters of hate tease love’s flaming blaze, but are evaporated smokeless:- Thus, is love’s warming eternal grace; for wherever the flames of love abide, hate’s filthy waters are forever dammed.
