Flames of brilliant white-blue fire
Flash through the dark of night
Giving my thoughts a place to graze
Like cattle on the land, in the hay
Feeding off the nutrients of grass
Clumps of precious sustenance
Nourishing my ideas and dreams
With inspiration, insight and belief
That lives within the hopes that live
Within me – in my heart and soul
Where I go when I long for something
To breath, like beauty and intimacy
Feelings that penetrate my spirit
With sensitivity, sensations of intimacy
The fires raise goosebumps on my naked
Skin where truth comes to enlighten me
With soft caresses that fill me with desire
Passion resting around my creativity and
Dream of happiness, joy that lives within me
Filling me up with a tenderness that whispers
Through my soul, enlightening and delighting
Comparing my thoughts to those that fill up
Books with poetic ideas, breaths of light
Covering spirits with warm sighs and visions
Releasing pieces of hunger through my heart
Reaching into me with purpose that colors
Me in hues of crimson hope and violet dreams
Mysterious breathes of kindness murmuring
Like a brook across smooth, wet stones
Blazing beauty, fire from the rhythmic beat
Of a heart that lives to pour out more oil
On the hearth of my ideas and visions, my
Feelings of hope and faith and love that prays
For more smoke to enchant and hypnotize
Create a sense of peace uttering contentment
Through my bones and into veins flowing
With imagination, inspiration and insight
Ideas for music that wakens the heart to
Hear heaven’s harps playing through eternity
Praising, glorifying and worshipping the One
Who sparks the fires inside me with a light
That lives to purify and penetrate the darkness
Leaving only hues of healing, hope and happiness
To laugh through the heart who knows Him
The One who makes a way through the storm
Guiding cold hearts to the flame that licks Love
Through the walls built by loss, grief and fear
Love that lives – is eternally alive – thrilling
Sending fires to fulfill and enlighten through it all
Flames that light up the heart and soul with
Joy that knows hope and faith – amazing Love
Love that conquers all – Love from the Spirit of God
