Fire Igniting Me

Favourite flames play in my mind,
Igniting a precious find,
Rages through the very being,
Elated, I find me freeing; 

In Your Presence, I am refreshed, 
Good waves wash over me afresh, 
Never have I felt so cosy,
Instantly, I'm pink and rosy,
To these comforting thoughts I cling,
Imagination - What joy you bring!
Near You is where I want to be, 
Great God, You're my eternity. 

Musing over these fiery thoughts, 
Eternal blessing have I got.

(I've often imagined myself to be God's favourite child and that fire of imagination makes me feel blessed)

JO, I enjoyed your poem and the little note you put under it. Yes, you are so like my mom. She tells me how she used to twirl around in the middle of her dad's corn field, just filled with God's spirit.
